Matilda Jr

Encore Arts are delighted to be returning to Parabola Arts Centre with our latest production, Matilda Jr!

Bringing together our phenomenal casts from Cheltenham Youth Theatre and Bromsgrove Youth Theatre, it's set to be an amazing weekend, showcasing the talent of young performers spanning two counties.

"Rebellion is nigh in Matilda Jr, a gleefully witty ode to the anarchy of childhood and the power of imagination!"

This story of a girl who dreams of a better life, and the children she inspires, will have audiences rooting for the "revolting children" who are out to teach the grown-ups a lesson.

Packed with high-energy dance numbers and catchy songs, Matilda JR. is a joyous girl power romp. Children and adults alike will be thrilled and delighted by the story of this extraordinary little girl with an extraordinary imagination.
