Cambridge Theatre är en av de anrika teaterscenerna i London som bevakas av British Theatre. Här hittar du de senaste föreställningarna, praktiska tips inför ditt besök och all information du behöver för att boka dina biljetter.

Cambridge Theatre uppfördes mellan 1929 och 1930. Som en motreaktion till tidens music halls och biografer valdes en inredning som speglade 1920-talets tyska expressionism. Historiskt sett har produktionerna på Cambridge Theatre kännetecknats av relativt korta spelperioder, som ofta varat i endast ett år eller så lite som två månader. I modern tid har dock teatern huserat mer långlivade uppsättningar, däribland den kontroversiella Jerry Springer – The Opera. Musikalen, skriven av Richard Thomas och komikern Stewart Lee, väckte starka reaktioner och ledde till omfattande protester från kristna organisationer under sin tvååriga spelperiod. År 2005 flyttade långköraren Chicago hit från Adelphi Theatre och stannade i fem år innan den drog vidare till Garrick. För närvarande är teatern hemvist åt Royal Shakespeare Companys succémusikal Matilda the Musical, skriven av komikern Tim Minchin.

About Cambridge Theatre

The Cambridge Theatre was built in 1929-30. In a reaction to the music halls and cinemas of the time, the interior décor was selected to reflect the style of the 1920s German expressionist movement. Productions at the Cambridge Theatre have been characterised by relatively short runs, lasting just a year or sometimes as short as two months.

Longer runs in modern times have included controversial piece Jerry Springer – The Opera, a musical written by Richard Thomas and comedian Stewart Lee, which caused great outcry and led to several protests from the Christian community. The show ran for two years.

In 2005, the long running show Chicago transferred from the Adelphi Theatre and remained in the Cambridge for five years before moving to the Garrick. The theatre is currently host to the RSC’s Matilda the Musical, written by comedian Tim Minchin.

I recently went to see Matilda The Musical, and it was absolutely extraordinary. I genuinely enjoyed every single second of it. The children on stage were simply outstanding. Their acting, singing, and energy were beyond impressive, especially given their age. Each child brought so much personality and precision to their role that it was impossible not to be completely immersed in the story. Their timing, expressions, and confidence made the performance feel incredibly professional and emotionally engaging. The staging and set design were equally remarkable. The sets are creative, dynamic, and visually stunning, constantly evolving to match the rhythm and emotion of the story. Combined with clever choreography and playful details, the whole production felt alive and magical. Every scene transition was seamless, keeping the audience fully engaged from start to finish. What really stood out to me was how complete the show felt, the music, the humour, the emotion, the visuals, and the performances all worked together perfectly. It’s one of those rare shows that makes you smile, laugh, and feel genuinely moved, regardless of your age. Overall, Matilda The Musical is an exceptional production: joyful, powerful, and beautifully executed. A truly unforgettable theatre experience that I would recommend without hesitation.

I bought this as a gift for my sisters birthday. We watched the show today and we did enjoy it - however we like others we could not understand the Matilda actress much. The first half of the show we did find boring, but the second half was much more enjoyable. Felt quite restricted in the seats too not much room but that can’t be helped. Well done to all the cast especially the children and Mrs Trunchball! It was a good show to see one time however I would not go back and see it again like other west end musicals.

This may ruin Matilda for you, but the children rarely sing! They are accompanied by backing tracks on every song and the children just dance rather than sing. I found the Ms Trunch character offensive. Why is this character played by a man? Are evil woman always old, obese, unattractive and manly? However, the heroine, Ms Honey, is young, slim and beautiful? Is this really the message you want to give your kids? Stay away from ugly people but attractive people are ok? And the body microphones were poor. I couldn't understand about a third of what was said. I would skip this 'musical'.

Matilda the Musical was a wonderful experience for both the children and us as parents. Time simply flew by, and we didn’t realise how quickly it passed. It is an outstandingly well-produced and highly enjoyable musical, full of energy, talent and charm. 👏
