It has won more than 50 major awards in all categories, and since 2012 it has entered the GUINNESS record book, winning for the first time in history seven OLIVIER Theatre Awards in London that year, including the first ever Actor in a Leading Role Award, presented to the girls who played the role of Matilda.

Synopsis:

Matilda Wormwood is a child different from other children her age. Her mind, emotions and abilities operate at a very high level.

She loves to read, has telekinetic abilities, creates stories with her mind and abhors injustice, growing up in an unfair world, around the wrong people, as is unfortunately the case with all special creatures.

Matilda, with her mind and purity, fights by standing up for what is right and just, stands up to the obstacles put in front of her by her family and the paranoid headmistress of her school, and helps her beloved teacher to win her life back.
