We are using a harness for this scene in our school musical aswell. Apparently principal didnt know about it and he walked into our rehearsal and was like "uhhhhhhhmmmm what the flip" because he watched us throw a small child 😭😭

[@MonokumaDanganronpaD]

No The Actor grabs her Top which part of her Jumper and the lights went out and just Let down the Chil and the Child hide some where

[@CamSlaysAtSephora]

​@user-bw3ji1ms2t that's a lie..I have been in and seen many matilda films and that's how they do it. They attach a harness with straps under her shirts and trunchbull is able to grab the straps and swing her around, then the lights dim and she goes to the other side of the stage.

Amanda thrip scene look so fun omg 😂

[@cenderalers1159]

@kajio78 true lol

[@cenderalers1159]

@kajio78 oh my was she okay?

[@official_davis]

@@cenderalers1159it’s a dummy that makes it look like her. so it was actually her, because in real life she’s hiding in a group to make it look like she did fall

[@FatFiber8096]

@@official_davisit’s actually not a dummy there is a metal pole hidden in the pigtails and she’s actually spun around

[@Army_Dog]

As someone who's played Trunchbull this scene was really fun to act, especially the "you've just made a very big mistake" line

[@mariadanielaoliveracalvo7040]

4:12 What a difference! In the Stage version: When Trunchbull says her name, The students do a back step. In the Movie version: When Trunchbull says her name, Amanda does a step foward.

[@AnaMariaTorres-oe1sg]

There is also another difference In the stage version: trunchbull says "about wearing pigtails" In the movie version: trunchbull says "about pigtails"

[@mariadanielaoliveracalvo7040]

@@AnaMariaTorres-oe1sg Oh, yes. Good one.

[@slam-ittthehedgehog8723]

​@@mariadanielaoliveracalvo7040There was also a third difference. Compared to the movie version, the stage version didn't say this quote, "Yes still got it!"

[@ZOXEY555]

1:10 "You're done kid! You're FINISHED!!! 1:12 "Once Agatha Trunchbull decides you're GUILTY you're SQUISHED!!! 1:15 "Yesterday she caught Julius Rottwinkle eating a gobstopper during science! She just picked him up swung him around and through him out the WINDOW!!! Me: What is going on

BTW the caps at the end of each sentence are when they all yell at the same time

Amanda be like:vole 😂😂😂😂😂😂

1:11 The accent I just dropped dead

[@blackoutcoasters]

I think at this point they were doing the odd half British/ half American accent so Americans could understand the words better!

[@3t3rn4lsunsh1n3]

i just got cast as trunchbull.. so nervous omg

[@R4wr1tz..willow]

I played Amanda in my highschools production of Matilda and I wish we had the budget for a harness that would’ve been so funny 😭 We used a giant doll tho and it ended up hitting me right before I dove into the stage during a rehearsal 💀

[@marqcoronado9048]

4:27 it's so loudy screaming Amanda RIP

[@miriangepinto8570]

I had to do that❤

[@jkrfan7]

can someone tell me how they did the lift and spin?

[@throwingthehammer]

I believe there’s hooks in the wig near her ears so Trunchbull grips onto there without hurting Amanda.

[@paranormal1305]

I think she has a harness underneath her blazer but they make it look like it’s her hair

[@SK_2174]

@@paranormal1305That’s what I thought, too.

[@jakejancook]

It's actually really impressive! I assumed it would be done off stage or something but that was crazy

[@Noah_notfound]

They use it so if the hooks let go it could leave the actor paralyzed

[@angeluwu4317]

ok so i know how did they use the amanda thripp trow scene so she got amanda by her overolls that she have and the pigtails so i mean trunchbull is not hurting amanda

[@ju2545]

She had a wig

That's weird the trunchbull has got a male voice it's played by a female called Emma Thompson in the movie

[@GrinningLikeaDelicateJamesDean]

On stage, the Trunchbull's normally played by a man as a joke.

[@floatinglittledinosaur7794]

@@GrinningLikeaDelicateJamesDean no, it's played by a man bc the hammer throwing scene (the video) needs a strong person to grab a person and ig no woman showed up

[@GrinningLikeaDelicateJamesDean]

@@floatinglittledinosaur7794 No, the hammer is fake. It's musical theater, they would never throw an actual hammer onstage, it's way too dangerous and there's a union for actors. They cast men in the role of Trunchbull, because it plays up the role for comedic effect. Also, why would a production have someone throw a real hammer and endanger kids lol. As a stage performer, that's highly inappropriate lmao

[@Kolemeier]

its not a joke they just use man because they are larger and its easier for them to do the hammer thrown

[@GrinningLikeaDelicateJamesDean]

@@Kolemeier So, why would broadway productions go out of their way to involve real dangerous flying objects when parents have entrusted them with the safety of their children. If you don’t know, there’s a thing called Actors’ Equity Union which prevents anything like throwing heavy hammers around on stage..it makes sure the safety of all actors are ensured, otherwise the production becomes incredibly sued. So, therefore no real hammers are ever involved, just like there are no hammers involved in the film adaptations. It’s called theater, it’s all acting.
