MATILDA THE MUSICAL
Wine Country Theatre
Packed with humor, heart, and unforgettable music, this award-winning musical promises an inspiring theatrical experience for audiences of all ages. This is a live theatre production that kids love.
Based on Roald Dahl's beloved novel, Matilda tells the story of an extraordinary young girl with a brilliant mind, vivid imagination, and remarkable courage. Neglected by her parents and bullied by the fearsome school headmistress Miss Trunchbull, Matilda dares to challenge the world around her and discovers that even the smallest person can make an extraordinary difference.
Winner of four Tony Awards and seven Olivier Awards, Matilda the Musical has captivated audiences worldwide with its uplifting message, memorable songs, and celebration of individuality.

OUR FOUNDATION & FUTURE
Through our non-profit (sister) organization, the Templeton Performing Arts Center Foundation, we have been able to bring a number of improvements and enhancements to our venue.
State-of-the-art upgrades — including new LED CYC lights, advanced LED moving lights, a professional-grade light console, a cutting-edge sound board, a new Clear-Com system, a new greenroom stage monitoring system, and a digital audio snake — would not be possible without the generous support of the Foundation and donors.
Visit our Foundation website for more information about its role and commitment to securing additional funding for the Performing Arts Center's continuous growth and potential to be one of the premiere theatrical venues in all of San Luis Obispo county.
