With a smart, magical young heroine, UMW Theatre’s production of ‘Matilda the Musical’ is a family-friendly spectacle. It’s fast-paced, funny and just defiant enough to satisfy anyone who’s ever faced a bully.
The production runs through Nov. 19. Shows begin at 7:30 p.m. Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, with 2 p.m. matinees on Sundays and on one Saturday. All shows are in Klein Theatre in duPont Hall.
