MATILDA THE MUSICAL Comes to Layton, August 11

Over 50 cast members of all ages, accompanied by a live orchestra, will take to the stage at the Layton High School Auditorium for 6 performances of Matilda the Musical beginning Thursday, August 11th.

Presented by On Pitch Performing Arts (OPPA!) as part of their 2022 Community Theater season, and based on the children's novel of the same name by Roald Dahl, Matilda is a joyous girl power romp, packed with high-energy dance numbers and catchy songs. Children and adults alike will be thrilled and delighted by the story of an extraordinary girl who, armed with a sharp mind and vivid imagination dares to take a stand and change her destiny.

"Our summer production draws in creative talent from all across Northern Utah, and provides such a unique opportunity for families to perform on stage together or simply experience live theater for the first time together as attendees" says Dan Tate, Board President of On Pitch Performing Arts. "For some, it's become an annual event. And, thanks to Layton RAMP and all of our partnerships, we continue to expand our audience engagement numbers and have become a natural addition to this wonderful community."
