Miss Agatha Trunchbull - Lead, Male or Female, Baritone, age 30+

Tyrannical headmistress at Matilda's school who despises children. Male in female clothing/makeup/hair, or female. A cruel and sadistic person, but not a brute or brash - rather, sly and conniving, cunning and slinky.

Matilda Wormwood - Lead, Female, Mezzo-Soprano, female; age 8-12

An imaginative girl who is clever and wise far beyond her years. She has a thirst for learning that cannot be quenched. Likable and charismatic, not annoying or pretentious. Honest and unassuming, but with a prankster streak and a strong sense of justice.

Miss Jennifer Honey - Supporting, Female, Mezzo-Soprano, age 20-40

Matilda's kindhearted teacher. She is tired of living in fear under Miss Trunchbull. Sweet, honest, caring, and intelligent, Miss Honey is timid but willing to become brave and stand up to bullies in order to protect her students.

Mr. Harry Wormwood - Supporting, Male, Baritone, age 30-50, Matilda's uncaring father. A slimy, greedy used-car salesman, unintentionally hilarious.

Mrs. Zinnia Wormwood - Supporting, Female, Mezzo-Soprano, age 30-50

Matilda's self-absorbed, negligent mother and an amateur ballroom dancer

Michael Wormwood - Featured, Male, Tenor, age 10-18 Matilda's slightly older brother. He is a deadpan comedic character, with various lines and “bits” throughout the show.

Mrs. Phelps - Featured, Female, Non-singer, age 20+, a kindly librarian and Matilda’s friend.

Bruce Bogtrotter - Featured, Male, Countertenor, Tenor, age 9-14, Matilda's classmate. He is subject to punishment by Miss Trunchbull. Bruce is a genuine, kind boy with a fondness for sweets; his spirit is broken by the Trunchbull but he bounces back stronger than ever.

Lavender - Featured, Female, Mezzo-Soprano, age 9-14, Matilda's classmate and best friend. Lavender is squeaky and super-adorable, and what she lacks in intelligence she makes up for in enthusiasm and friendliness.

Adult Ensemble – Any gender, age 16+, group of performers who will play multiple roles throughout the show 

Youth Ensemble – Any gender, 8-15, group of performers who will play students at Matilda’s school.
