Matilda The Musical. It kicks off on Thursday. Unfortunately, tickets are hard to come by. Get our free mobile app That's because they sold out last week. I even went and checked the ALT website for myself. Sure enough, every single date is sold out. After the show sold out, a Facebook group was created to help people find tickets. If someone wasn't able to make it or needed to swap for a different day, the hope is that you could coordinate online. I guess we could call it "Matilda Mania" in Amarillo. The film Matilda was a big success, and many of us look back fondly on it. It's based on the children's book by Roald Dahl.
