Matilda The Musical

Start the New Year off right by joining us at the Canyon Theatre Guild for the amazing story of Roald Dahl’s Matilda: The Musical. Co-Directors John Lucewich and Jennifer Teague are thrilled to be a part of this remarkable story of an extraordinary girl who, armed with a vivid imagination and a sharp mind, dares to take a stand and change her own destiny.
“Ever since I first saw the musical in 2015, it instantly became one of my all-time favorites” said Mr. Lucewich upon learning he would be co-directing the production. “I am excited to share the magic and wonderment that I felt when I first discovered this amazing show!”
With music and lyrics by the brilliant comedy musician, Tim Minchin, the score is refreshing, fun, and deeply touching. “I am obsessed! Tim Minchin is so innovative, creative, and flat out genius. “Simply beautiful!” commented Ms. Teague who also vocal directs the production. “I am so proud of the entire cast and our creative team. We love the show so much and know you will too!”
Met with awards and rave reviews, Matilda: The Musical still holds the record for most Olivier awards won by a musical, tying with Hamilton in 2018. At the 2013 Tony Awards, the show won five awards, including the Tony Award for Best Book of a Musical. “Once in a blue moon, a show comes out blazing and restores your faith in Broadway. ‘Matilda The Musical’ is that show.” – New York Post.
