Last weekend, the young people of the Majella Flanagan Theatre Company took to the stage at Roscommon Arts Centre with the popular ‘Matilda The Musical Jr’.
After months of rehearsals, the group of over 70 children aged five and up, entertained audiences with three sold-out performances of the smash-hit musical.
Based on the beloved book by Roald Dahl and adapted from the award-winning full-length musical, Matilda The Musical Jr tells the 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.
The talented young cast treated audiences to energetic dance numbers and catchy songs such as ‘When I Grow Up’, ‘School Song’, ‘Naughty’ and ‘Revolting Children’.
The heartwarming musical was a great success, with each performance receiving a standing ovation.
Production team Majella and Laoise Flanagan were both delighted with the reaction the musical received and would like to say a massive well done and thank you to all of the cast, crew and parents who made this production possible.
