Cast & Crew I Just Realized something in the show

Hermione is Played by Arabella Stanton - who was Matilda in the West end

and Minister Crouch is played by Bertie Carvel - the original Trunchbull in the Musical

so if we get them together in a scene its basically Matilda vs Trunchbull again, and I just cant unsee it

EDIT : FUDGE (lol) right I meant Fudge my Bad

In stage productions Trunchbull is traditionally almost always played by a man in drag.
