For the second time this summer, Marc and I lucked out when we scored inexpensive orchestra tickets for the musical, Matilda, at the Orpheum Theater. Just like the time we watched Annie in the same theater a month and a half earlier, young girls aged 6 to 12 formed the majority of the viewers.

I really had not checked out reviews of the play when it played in London and New York and we thus had no idea what it was all about. We did enjoy it though. Just like any of the plays we watched in the past, there usually is one song that stands out for me. In this case it was the song, When I Grow Up which did it for me. I kept humming it all the way home. I loved it so much I googled it on YOU TUBE and watched the song sung at the Tony's in New York a few years back over and over.
