Matilda by Tim Minchin NOVEMBER
Matilda is the story of an extraordinary little girl with extraordinary powers. The daughter of abusive parents, Matilda finds refuge in library books, which she reads quickly and in creating her own stories. Things are no better at school, where Matilda also must face a tyrannical and cruel headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, who believes in Crunchem Hall’s motto: “Bambinatum est Magitum,” or “Children are Maggots.” She finds companionship in her teacher, Miss Honey, though well-intentioned, is shy and fragile. Brave little Matilda knows she has to stand up against the adults in her world, and in doing so, discovers her own remarkable powers.
The Velveteen Rabbit by Anita Larson MARCH
Margery Williams’ classic story of a stuffed toy rabbit made real by a boy’s enduring love is ideal for young actors or audiences. This adaptation captures all the tenderness and magic of the original story and adds six beautiful songs plus opportunities for dancers and incidental music. Your audiences will laugh at the antics of the living rabbits and cry when the Velveteen Rabbit lies discarded in the rubbish heap. But most of all, everyone will be moved when the little boy announces his Velveteen Rabbit is real, and the Nursery Magic Fairy turns this love into a miracle.
