  5. Tony Awards 2013: 'Matilda's' four young stars are all smiles

    NEW YORK — "Even if you're little, you can do a lot" sings the spirited 5-year-old heroine of "Matilda, the Musical," the Broadway hit adapted from the children's classic by Roald Dahl. The lyrics are a message of self-empowerment for Matilda, a Dostoyevsky-reading prodigy neglected by her dim-witted, vulgar parents.

  9. Bertie Carvel gives his all as 'Matilda's' demonic Miss Trunchbull

    NEW YORK — Miss Agatha Trunchbull, headmistress of Crunchem Hall school, hates pigtails. They're good only to serve as handles by which she can toss a rebellious child into the air — a feat this one-time Olympic hammer-throwing champion shows off early in "Matilda," the new Broadway musical.

  11. Broadway review: No holding back 'Matilda,' the best family musical in years

    <strong>NEW YORK -</strong> No smart kid likes condescension. And any halfway clever mum or dad quickly figures out that the way to get a willful child, and they must all be willful, to love something is to pretend that they really should not like it all. That is, to a great extent, a manifestation of the gospel according to Roald Dahl, the cunning British literary satirist who disguised his moral lessons on the importance of education, books and human kindness within a delicious, kid-friendly embrace of bad behavior and anti-establishment trickery.

    — At one moment in "Ghost,"the cold, over-produced and structurally lazy new musical from London that resembles more a metallic Times Square theme-park ride than a legitimate show with heart, the initially skeptical character of Molly (Caissie Levy)...

  17. 'Slumdog Millionaire' musical in works without Danny Boyle, others

    Theater producers love turning movies into musicals, and the energetic, Oscar-winning &ldquo;Slumdog Millionaire&rdquo; looks like a good candidate for a screen-to-stage makeover. But after years of negotiations proved fruitless, a planned London musical about the rags-to-riches game show contestant is now being developed without the participation of any of the film&rsquo;s key creators, including director Danny Boyle and composer A.R. Rahman.
