Matilda The Musical: Pictures released ahead of show's arrival in Birmingham
Matilda The Musical is coming to Birmingham this summer - and the cast have now begun rehearsals ready for the show.

The touring shows' songs have been written by British-Australian comedian, actor, musician and director Tim Minchin.
