SUMMARY:Matilda the Musical
DESCRIPTION:MATILDA THE MUSICAL is the story of an extraordinary little girl who\, armed with a vivid imagination\, a sharp mind and psychokinetic powers\, dares to take a stand and change her own destiny. \nThis Barfoot & Thompson season will be strictly limited and is presented by North Shore Music Theatre (Wicked\, Auckland; Miss Saigon\, Auckland)\, The Amici Trust (Mary Poppins\, Les Misérables) and the Encore Theatre Collective (Elf\, Disney’s The Little Mermaid)\, in association with G&T Productions (Jersey Boys\, Kinky Boots).\nTickets from Ticketmaster starting at $72.60* adults and $42.60* for children (15 and under). No extensions are possible so fans are urged to move swiftly to avoid disappointment. \nMatilda is unloved by her cruel parents but impresses her schoolteacher\, the highly loveable Miss Honey. Over the course of her first term at school\, Matilda and Miss Honey have a profound effect on each other’s lives\, as Miss Honey begins not only to recognise but also appreciate Matilda’s extraordinary personality. Matilda’s school life isn’t completely smooth sailing\, however – the school’s mean headmistress\, Miss Trunchbull\, hates children and just loves thinking up new punishments for those who don’t abide by her rules. But Matilda has courage and cleverness in equal amounts\, and could be the school pupils’ saving grace! \nPacked with high-energy dance numbers\, catchy songs and quick wit\, Matilda is a joyous girl power romp. Children and adults alike will be thrilled and delighted by the story of the special little girl with an extraordinary imagination.

Today\, as its 50th anniversary party continues to have people doing The Time Warp around the world\, the show’s creator Richard O’Brien has done a “bit of a mind flip” and penned a new satirical musical\, The KINGDOM OF BLING. \nInspired by the madness of American politics and the ripple effect it has on the rest of the world\, the 82-year-old Tauranga-based twisted genius announces the world premiere “Celebration of Kindness Tour” this October\, ahead of the chaos of the 5 November election. \nStarring O’Brien as The Narrator alongside an extraordinary ensemble cast\, this cautionary tale has the wacky hallmarks of Rocky Horror while featuring giants\, a menacing fox\, trolls\, and the king of the land – the obnoxious ‘The He’ (guess who?). The musical is backed by a stonking rock band\, belting out original songs in a style that made Rocky Horror such a blast. \nThe KINGDOM OF BLING is set in “a time of confusion\, when so many madly\, strange beliefs collide. A time when kindness had been demonised\, while crafty blindness wined and dined in a world it had divided”. \nThe KINGDOM OF BLING breaks the fourth wall\, giving audiences the rare treat of playing along with one of the world’s most celebrated authors and actors whose production has been performed in 20 different languages and been seen by 30 million people globally. As a bonus track\,  production will feature a second act – a Q&A with O’Brien talking about his life\, The Rocky Horror Show\, the theatre and inspiration for his latest project.
