MENDOTA - The MEF (Mendota Education Foundation) will celebrate their 20th anniversary production this summer with Roald Dahl’s “Matilda the Musical.”

Roald Dahl’s “Matilda The Musical” is the story of an extraordinary girl who, armed with a vivid imagination and a sharp mind, dares to take a stand and change her own destiny. Inspired by the twisted genius of Roald Dahl, the Tony Award-winning musical is a captivating masterpiece from the Royal Shakespeare Company that revels in the anarchy of childhood, the power of imagination and the inspiring story of a girl who dreams of a better life. With the book by Dennis Kelly and original songs by Tim Minchin, Matilda has won 47 international awards and continues to thrill sold-out audiences of all ages around the world.
This is the 20th year of MEF productions, which help to raise funds for classroom grants that are awarded to Mendota schools.
