“You would never imagine...”

They are currently performing the musical Matilda here. You might think it's just for kids, but it's actually fantastic and well worth the cost. The orchestra seating is very comfortable, and the staff is excellent. The performance is among the best I've ever seen, with incredible stage design, scenery, and choreography. If you enjoy musical theater, you shouldn't skip this one.
