But all eyes were on the girl in the red beret. The snippet featured a small portion of the song “Revolting Children,” a cast-heavy number that sees the acrobatic students of Crunchem Hall staging a revolt against their oppressive headmaster - taking a stand against unnecessary things like good posture and spelling correctly. Two weeks ago, Netflix and Sony Pictures dropped an unassuming 38-second clip to Youtube, Twitter, and TikTok, promoting the film’s U.K. But on TikTok, she’s known as Red Beret Girl. On the cast list, you’ll see Garbett’s name by Hortensia. But her biggest role yet has already been making waves weeks before its U.S debut: the upcoming Netflix movie Roald Dahl’s Matilda The Musical(based on the West End musical and the 1988 book by Roald Dahl, but not the 1996 film). That skill has manifested into some major credits for the young actress and dancer, including parts in a George Ezra music video, Jingle Jangle, and the theatrical version of Cats. From the small town of Telford in Shropshire, England, Garbett tells Rolling Stone she’s been dancing since she was three, which has allowed her to pick up choreography easily. In all honesty, the 14-year-old isn’t even sure she’d call herself a professional dancer. Meesha Garbett doesn’t think she’s a rebel.
