Looking for something fun to do with the whole family? Rolling Valley is partnering with the University of Mary Washington in Fredericksburg, VA to bring theatre into your homes! Tune in at 7:00 pm on Friday, April 9th for a FREE performance of a children’s show streaming via Broadway on Demand. Bedtime Stories (As Told By Our Dad) (Who Messed Them Up), written by former FCPS teacher Ed Monk, is a laugh out loud 70 minute theatre performance for children of all ages.
Dad is determined to make bedtime a smashing success. How hard could it be . . . read a few books and then . . . REST AND RELAXATION! Little does he know that the kids have impossibly high standards and, as he begins to dive in, Dad quickly realizes he doesn’t remember the classics as well as he thought. As his retellings teeter off the rails, he weaves unforgettable stories from familiar, yet fractured, tales.
Look for more information and directions next week on how to access this free performance!
