a trip to New York City to see Matilda the Musical on Broadway at the age of 12 had inspired her to become an actress
Credible profiles say Sarah Bock saw Matilda on Broadway at age 8, not 12, and that experience inspired her to pursue acting.
Full reasoning
This sentence gets the age wrong. A February 3, 2025 profile in The Daily Northwestern reports that "At the age of eight, Bock ventured to New York to see 'Matilda' on Broadway" and that the trip inspired her to pursue acting more seriously. A separate biographical profile for Sarah Bock likewise says that watching Matilda the Musical on Broadway "at eight" sparked her desire to pursue acting professionally. These sources directly contradict the article's claim that she was 12 when that trip inspired her.
