Tony Award-winning Roald Dahl’s Matilda The Musical tells the inspiring story of a special little girl with an extraordinary imagination.

But Matilda has courage and cleverness in equal amounts, and could be the school pupils’ saving grace!
Packed with high-energy dance numbers and catchy songs, Matilda is a joyous girl-power romp through which we learn that even if you’re little, you can do a lot!

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Prince Tamino is pursued by a dragon into a magical land of fantasy where, aided by three mysterious ladies, he seeks to rescue the beautiful Pamina, daughter of the Queen of the Night, from the powerful Sarastro. With the assistance of the bird-catcher Papageno, he finds that nothing is quite as it first seems in this allegory about a quest for truth, beauty and pure love. Beautiful music and some of the most memorable arias in opera, paired with a cast of fanciful characters, make this Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s crowning operatic achievement.

Tri Valley Rep: The Song of the Nightingale
2023-04-29 20:00 - 2023-05-14 22:00 | Firehouse Theater, Pleasanton
Book, Music & Lyrics by Min Kahng
Based on Hans Christian Andersen’s The Nightingale
When Mei Lin, an ambitious kitchen-maid, hears that the Emperor of China is searching for The Nightingale – the bird whose song brings hope to the people of the land, she offers to help find and capture the bird in exchange for a lofty promotion. This transaction has tragic consequences, however, as Mei Lin soon learns that the Emperor is a foolish ruler who cannot see beyond the bird’s plain outer appearance. Based on a Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale, The Song of The Nightingale is a magical, musical romp that reminds us that true beauty and worth is always found within.
