Bob Diepold that will always be the most stupid stunt the tony awards will have ever done. They acted like children when they awarded it to kinky boots.
I imagine seeing it in London helped you understand what was bein said . I saw it on tour in San Francisco and the British accents (imo) seemed more forced here in the states.

Greenleaf Productions thanks for your reply but i'm not living in the US. but i do hope in the future when i get to visit my sister there, it'll be back on broadway, or at least on tour. Congrats to the whole team! I love this musical so much.
I saw this musical about 6 years ago. I’m glad it was the first musical I ever saw and I got to go with my grandma who recently passed away. It’s a lovely memory of mine
What a sunning performance! As an actor myself, I know the sad, heartbreaking feeling of the final curtain call. Good job young actors. And great footage.
It's a big show to produce so it can't play in every market, but it will be around. Our same team is opening a new musical this spring on Broadway. Groundhog Day. We think it's pretty special.
You can always catch the national tour. When that's done, local stage companies will start producing it too. In some cases, I'm glad to see shows follow a natural progression. After a few years, the theatre should be made available to another production (to keep it fresh), and the show should then go on the road for a year or two. Once that is done, local rights should be released and community and professional regional theatres should have a shot at it. Ultimately, this gives the show the widest possible audience. As great as Broadway and West End are, only a very small fraction of people who want to see the show can ever make it there.
This musical is the best ever. Sad to see that they already closed on Broadway. I hope someday that they will bring back again this musical on Broadway.
Love this so much. I’m playing the percussion for Matilda and it’s so fun (but a lot of counting!) my only complaint is I can’t actually see the show, but thanks to videos like these I can sort of. I do wish they brought the band out so we could see them though
Ending that musical with Bows and taking a bow at the curtain call and hearing a big applause and then you pat and clap for the kids did a good job performing the musical.
I just got done watching the looks not books series... its so amazing that they invited lesli back for the last 4 to 5 months. I've never been on a long running show liek this, but 2 years ago I was in an amazing show with an amazing cast, and I am still crying missing the cast. REVIVAL NOW PLEASE!!!
So sad! I've only seen Matilda in Toronto and tomorrow's the last performance, hopefully I'll be able to catch in again when they do a revival, and I certainly can't wait for the film!
@@GreenleafPro yep, it's opening back in September of this year until February of next year hopefully I go and see it there sometime #bringbackmatildabroadway
Musical Girl sort of. the reason why shows close on Broadway has everything to do with venue owners, and while most of the time, the show's performance is the big decider, other times they're offered more money for their venue. I think it might have had something to do with that.
The awards attention, plus the favorable reviews from New York critics, helped “Matilda” become a regular member of the millionaires’ club at the Broadway box office, consistently topping $1 million in gross sales per week for most of its first year on the boards. After the show recouped its $16 million capitalization costs in 2014, box office has gradually slowed, although the title frequently sees its numbers spike in high-tourism weeks. The show’s weekly grosses have fluctuated considerably over time; last week, it grossed $807,649 and played to 86 percent capacity audiences, but it has had many weeks over $1 million, and many under $600,000. Broadway is quite competitive right now, with several shows appealing to families, and another musical adapted from a Roald Dahl book, “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory,” is planning to open on Broadway in the spring of 2017.
Recently watched a bootleg of the show with Sophia gennusa. This show is beautiful. It makes you laugh and cry. Shame it closed. #bringbackmatildabroadway
It had to close just as I got tall enough to play matilda!Lol.I saw the show in new York in December and I couldn't believe how amazing it was and that it was closing so soon!
If you look very closely (between 2:06- 2:08) you can actually see the actress playing Matilda going from the Matilda pose to the regular standing position, just before the spotlight comes back up. You normally wouldn't see this in a regular performance, but because there were so many phones filming the event, this was an exception. Please reply to this comment if you find it interesting.
That's weird I have not really watched this since 2018 or 2019 I didn't even know if it was the final performance of matilda so I wasn't sad anyways, I also didn't know that Willow McCarthy was just standing there after her matilda pose but thanks I will remember that!
Doing the jr version at school soon. I’m playing Rudolpho! Sadly school said that we can’t do it on scooters. But still my favourite song in the whole show! I remember seeing this a few years ago and thinking I wish I could do that. Now I can! This is such a great show!
Tori NEVER grew out of Matilda. That’s why she replaced one girl from the 2015 tour. She was in the Broadway cast in 2013 or 2014 originally. And made the final cast of Broadway AGAIN! Wow she stayed short a long time.
why do I find the "sometime you have to be a little bit-" *Trunchbull riding by on the scooter* "MAGGOTS" "naughty" funny 😂🤣theres something about that bit
im glad that bryce got to close out the show saw him when he was doing the tour and he was brilliant as the trunchbull and his bro is batting stance guy
2:18 the kids on the left hold out their hands... most likely indicating that trunchbull chooses which side she will high-five the kids on.. or maybe it is just so its choreographed.
Hermione Granger 👁👄👁 what?!?!?!? You can audition for matilda at the Erie Playhouse in Erie PA I'm gonna audition there if you get a flyer you can audition if you want I have one but the auditions might be next year
I am crieing, Such a great musical being stopped. I can feel the depression from the actors, They where probs having a great time making people smile! the director / producer should make a new musical
Thank you. We miss it every day, but we have made a new musical - Groundhog Day. It's running on Broadway now, and it's wonderful! www.groundhogdaymusical.com
Love this show, saw it on Broadway and the West End. Sad to see it close, still can't believe it did not win Tony for Best Musical.
Bob Diepold that will always be the most stupid stunt the tony awards will have ever done. They acted like children when they awarded it to kinky boots.

Oh My God at 2:00
Miss Trunchbull saying "Maggots" made me laugh like crazy.
LesMiserablesCats 24601 at first me and friend thought that she said nuggets then a girls beside me said she said muggets
Then my teacher said its maggots
Same. Nice touch they did
Matilda: sometimes you have to be a little bit-
Miss Trunchball: Maggots
Matilda: naughty!!
😂😂
Buster 🤣
@person Im playing trunchbull in my school production two weeks from now😂
Nice touch
what does maggots even mean?
Buster il,
Hi
How I got through this video without crying is beyond me. I love this show.

We're still out on tour, hopefully at a town near you soon. us.matildathemusical.com/tour/engagements/

Are you in the UK or Australia by any chance?

Tilda M. isn't Matilda having a production in Manila?
I saw this musical about 6 years ago. I’m glad it was the first musical I ever saw and I got to go with my grandma who recently passed away. It’s a lovely memory of mine
I saw this show when I was in 5th grade. I was unable to appreciate it then and I barely remember it now. I want to see it again :c
6 YEARS THIS YEAR THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES
What a sunning performance! As an actor myself, I know the sad, heartbreaking feeling of the final curtain call. Good job young actors. And great footage.
♥︎MATILDA♥︎FOREVER♥︎
I'm so sad. This was my favourite ever show that I have seen. I love this. I hope they continue in the future.

still brings a tear to my eye. so many life lessons in this show. 1/1/17 at Shubert will be a cherished memory until my last breath
The Shubert Theatre is still there! It's playing "To kill a mockingbird" so you might be able to see that...
I cried watching this. Happy trails, Matilda.

Wow, they brought the orchestra on stage. Thanks for that
Best show show matilda show show london songs ❤❤😊
This musical is the best ever. Sad to see that they already closed on Broadway. I hope someday that they will bring back again this musical on Broadway.
I'm not crying 😭
So happy I'll be seeing it on tour!
Abaoneddreans i am going to see it on tour too in march
It would’ve been so cool if they got the OBC Matildas to come on stage too.
I know that Bailey snuck on stage at the back left corner x
Gosh the quality of this is amazing
i love you Matilda the Musical
#bringmatildabacktobroadway I would LOVE to see it live!
I was very lucky to see Matilda on the West End in 2019 and when miss trunchbull said maggots my mum and I were in fits of laughter
Such a wonderful show.
Love this so much. I’m playing the percussion for Matilda and it’s so fun (but a lot of counting!) my only complaint is I can’t actually see the show, but thanks to videos like these I can sort of. I do wish they brought the band out so we could see them though
They did, I believe, for bows
As Bruce says, "It's too much, it's just too much!" 😭😭😭
EAT!!!
Mr to my mom when I have to clean my room
Do you have them performing Bruce from this angle or closer. If you do can you please upload it. That would be great 👍
What about Naughty from that performance recorded in that angle?
@@GreenleafPro No
This is SUCH A FUN CAST ANND CURTAIN CALL!! I LOVE all the scooter accion and the kids are amazing aww

Ending that musical with Bows and taking a bow at the curtain call and hearing a big applause and then you pat and clap for the kids did a good job performing the musical.
I Had Saw Matilda And Was Like "I GOTTA AUDITION!" Few Months Later It Closed. Matilda Gave Me Passion To Audition For SOR Now!
I went to see that show twice. Great show!! I'll always remember it.

I remember I saw it for the first time ever with Alexandra vlanchos such a great musical!!
Wow, cool! But it's Alexandra "Vlachos", not Alexandra Vlanchos
I saw Matilda in Cardiff this year it was amazing I loved it
So sad...I love Matilda The Musical on Broadway forever
STUNNING footage. Thank you!
Still not sure why *Matilda* had to close. I thought it was doing good business...?
Three and a half years was a very good run and it was time to move on. The US tour is still very much alive!
Greenleaf Productions and west end is said to go at least past 2019😊❤️
6 years, and Its still halfway in the US, and soon closing in Australia. (Just Adelaide and Perth.)
Musical Girl

I wondered that too. maybe there wasn't one available?
seeing ava close out matilda and school of rock tonight brings me to tears.
Willow McCarthy is Matilda here
I haven’t even seen the musical yet I’m crying at this 😢
I love this musical its amazing
I'm going to see this soon can't wait I'm so xcited yippee in Cardiff UK 😊😊👋👋👍👍👍
You're gonna love it!
Amazing job cast & crew
Umm so like this is definitely the best curtain call I’ve ever seen in any musical.

Broadway is quite competitive right now, with several shows appealing to families, and another musical adapted from a Roald Dahl book, “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory,” is planning to open on Broadway in the spring of 2017.
Great job to the cast of Matilda, I am so proud of you all and keep up the good work from Ella Larson!
I am in love with this show. I never had the chance to see it since I live in Argentina, it’s so sad to see it close 💔
Ha ha at 2:00
Miss trunchball : maggots !!!!
Recently watched a bootleg of the show with Sophia gennusa. This show is beautiful. It makes you laugh and cry. Shame it closed. #bringbackmatildabroadway

It sure is!

This show would do amazingly in India...you guys should bring it here
