Inspired by the beloved book by British novelist Roald Dahl (1916-1990), the musical Matilda, by the Royal Shakespeare Company, launched its first tour in China, which started in July and will continue until January.
Kicked off in Dongguan, South China's Guangdong province, the tour includes 13 Chinese cities, including Changsha in Central China's Hunan province; Wuhan in Central China's Hubei province; Shanghai, and Nanjing in East China's Jiangsu province.
Matilda opened Thursday in Beijing and runs through Sunday.
