flvffs asked: have you ever seen the musical matilda (and i ask this for the way jenny honey is portrayed because it made my heart hurt in a good-bad way) (also because its been ages since i read the book and i cant remember)
I actually have not! In the interest of full disclosure, I don’t like musicals as a rule, they kind of aggravate me, save for a select few–Les Mis, aaaaaand…um, no, yeah. Les Mis. Oh, and Disney movies. I can sit through Moulin Rouge, I like some of the songs. I know exactly one song from Chicago but I’ve never felt motivated to watch it. I have seen RENT, but my interest in the plot is slim-to-none–again, I like a couple songs, but not the musical as a whole.
On the other hand, Matilda was my SHIT as a kid, so I’d honestly be prepared to see the musical just because MOTHERFUCKING MATILDA. And I love Miss Honey, she deserves the whole world.
