Matilda Wormwood: The hero of the show. She’s brilliant, resilient, creative, and kind, despite growing up in difficult circumstances.

Eric, Amanda, Bruce, Hortensia, Alice, Tommy, Lavender, and Nigel: students at school with Matilda.

Mr. Wormwood: He is egotistical, rude, and not very bright, not to mention a liar.

Mrs. Wormwood: Like her husband, she dislikes Matilda and does not understand why her daughter loves to read. She is selfish, obsessed with her own appearance, and believes everything she sees on TV.

Michael Wormwood: He is not very bright, though he is the apple of his father’s eye.

Mrs. Phelps: The kindly librarian who loves hearing Matilda’s stories.

Escapologist: A character of Matilda’s creation. Everything this character does is grand and exaggerated – he’s performing for the cheap seats!

Acrobat: A character of Matilda’s creation.

Miss Honey: She is kind, is generous, and really cares about the children despite her own desperate circumstances.

Agatha Trunchbull: The quintessential terrifying tyrant. As headmistress, she runs her school like a dictator, making up arbitrary rules to suit her every whim and dreaming up creative punishments.

Ruolpho: Mrs. Wormwood’s self-obsessed dance teacher.

Sergei: A custoner swindled by Mr. Wormwood.

Ensemble: including Russians, Little Kids, Big Kids, Kids, Mums, Dads, the Cook, and the Mechanic.
