This will be controversial, but I can't stand Matilda. The movies or the show. It just really gets on my nerves and I don't know why because everyone else seems to love it. 😂🙈

At the particular moment you asked what they were spelling, they were actually spelling "revolting". They spell different words at different times...and sometimes they aren't actually spelling words. They're spelling abbreviations ("It is 2-L-8-4-U We are revolting!")

Amber Harrison

Damn. They are all some talented ass kids. I agree definitely a different vibe between the two. The rawness of the Broadway version definitely supports the narrative of the wildness of the children.

Basya Gross

In answer to your question, the adults in the Broadway version of the song are playing the older kids. Instead of hiring dozens of child actors all the big kids, ages 12 and up I think, are played by adults and only the younger kids are played by actual kids.

You should react to the tony awards performance it’s really good

The spelling is meant to be weird and confusing! They're deliberately misspelling words and breaking the rules as part of their rebellion. So they're spelling n-o-r-t-y for naughty, 2-L-8-4-U for too late for you, s-p-l for spell, etc! (and the s-i-n-g-u-s-i-n-g part is sing / using, which is shortening the lyric "We sing revolting songs, using revolting rhymes") in the musical, this song happens after they all do perfectly on a spelling test, causing Trunchbull to invent a fake word to have an excuse to punish one of them, so they've decided that she can't punish all of them and all start misspelling words
