Character List:
Matilda Wormwood
The hero of the show. She’s brilliant, resilient, creative, and kind, despite growing up in
difficult circumstances. Her parents treat her poorly, but Matilda escapes into a world of books,
which puts her reading level far above the other children in her class, and she develops a bit of
magical power in an effort to defeat Trunchbull.
Eric A student at school with Matilda.
Amanda A student at school with Matilda
Bruce
One of Matilda’s schoolmates. He has the bad luck to get caught after eating Trunchbull’s
cake. Bruce goes through quite a transformation throughout the show
Hortensia A student at school with Matilda
Alice A student at school with Matilda
Tommy A student at school with Matilda
Lavender
One of the kids at school with Matilda. She is kind and bright (though not as brilliant as
Matilda) and quickly decides that Matilda is her best friend.
Nigel
One of the kids at school with Matilda. He is enthusiastic, sweet, and always in a bit of a panic.
Mr. Wormwood
Matilda’s father. He is egotistical, rude, and not very bright, not to mention a liar. Though
Mr. Wormwood is not a good person and he is mean to Matilda, his harebrained schemes can
be hilariously funny.
Mrs. Wormwood
Matilda’s mother. Like her husband, she dislikes Matilda and does not understand why her
daughter loves to read. Mrs. Wormwood is selfish, obsessed with her own appearance, and
believes everything she sees on TV. Her dancing lessons with Rudolpho are the most important part of her day.
Michael
Matilda’s brother. He is not very bright, though he is the apple of his father’s eye.
Mrs. Phelps
The kindly librarian who loves hearing Matilda’s stories.
Escapologist
A character of Matilda’s creation. Everything this character does is grand and exaggerated – he’s
performing for the cheap seats!
Acrobat A product of Matilda’s imagination.
Miss Honey
A teacher at Matilda’s school. She is kind, is generous, and really cares about the children
despite her own desperate circumstances.
Agatha Trunchbull
The quintessential terrifying tyrant. As headmistress, she runs her school like a dictator,
making up arbitrary rules to suit her every whim and dreaming up creative punishments.
Rudolpho Mrs. Wormwood’s self-obsessed dance teacher.
Sergei
A customer swindled by Mr. Wormwood. Though he shows up looking for payback, Matilda
has had quite enough of revenge, and Sergei lets the Wormwoods escape.
Ensemble
Ensemble roles include Russians, Little Kids, Big Kids (including Big Kid 1, Big Kid 2, and
Big Kid 3), Kids, Mums, Dads, the Cook, and the Mechanic.
Performances: April 10, 11 and 12
