The motion

That the Parliament commends the Clydebank Musical Society on its outstanding, sell-out production of Matilda; understands that the Clydebank Musical Society is a community theatre group committed to producing quality theatre on an amateur budget, with the aim to give children the space to have fun while developing life skills; notes that the team worked tirelessly for months to create its version of the musical, based on the Roald Dahl book about a gifted young girl who discovers that she has the power of telekinesis, and being forced to put up with a difficult family and school life; recognises that the group performed for almost 700 people across two nights, and thanks the cast and production team for putting in so much effort to produce a fantastic show for the local community to enjoy.
