(As Told by Our Dad) (Who Messed Them Up)
It’s already been a long day at work, and turns out, tonight it’s dad’s turn to put the kids to bed. With the kids demanding a bedtime story, can we really trust dad to get all the details right? What was it now- A princess and a pea? Also, who cries wolf again? And how exactly did you say his name- Rumpelstil-ton? Come watch dad struggle his way through his children’s personalised bedtime stories. Rediscover these classic tales in a way you’ve never seen before!

About NEST
NEST is the Theatre Association of the University of Twente, consisting of almost 70 students. It has 4 different groups, which each work on their own productions. This show is performed by its Toneel group, led by director Wout Hofstede. This group does scripted theatre, and produces two shows this year.
Companion Show
This show is a companion show with Bestest Bedtime Stories (As Told by Our Grandpa) (He’s Silly), which will be performed in May. Both shows make sense on their own, but if you like this one, you’ll like the other one too! Therefore, you can get a discount if you buy tickets for both shows, using the CombiDeal! You can also still join the production of the next show as cast or crew. Does that seem fun to you? Make sure to join the upcoming open lesson and/or auditions.
