Matilda the Musical Origial Broadway Recording Question

Posted: 7/8/15 at 12:50pm

I recently purchased Matilda the Musical (Original Broadway Cast Recording) as we'll be seeing the musical end of the summer in New York.

One question...and maybe I have to see the musical to understand, but the end of the recording has 3 bonus tracks...story 1, story 2 and story 3. How do these fit into the musical? Does Matilda actually tell this story during the musical or is it extra for the recording only? I assume it is the story of Matilda's parents?

The story is not about Matilda's parents. It would give away a plot point to tell you exactly. But she tells 'stories' to a librarian. These stories pop in to her head and are told throughout the show. :)

Matilda tells the story throughout the course of the show.

It's in the story...and they are told in order..

...so the 3 bonus tracks are told before the 4th Story which is actually included in the main recording.

Yes helps you understand the secret - eventually..when listened to in the context of seeing the show.

She has these 3 terribly boring monologues in the show. I don't have the CD but I'll take a guess and say, those are it.

Why would you write this as a "spoiler"??? ....and you just spoiled the story for no reason. It's not like whoever is reading this is not going to see what you just wrote? That's really totally unnecessary...and ridiculously rude.

Thanks for the responses. Wasn't sure how it fit in.

And yeah, could have done without the spoiler as had no idea

The OP said, "I assume it is the story of Matilda's parents?"... sorry for answering what I thought was a question. I was not my intent to be "rude". I was honestly just answering the question. My apologies. Jeez.
