TINKER TALES! (6+)

Doe mee!

Water sprays, power cuts out, the gutter clogs, and the pipes burst. Oh, what chaos! Let’s hope everything works out and nothing explodes!

Do you have two right hands or maybe not? Either way, we need you— all hands on deck! We’re connecting pipes, taping, sawing, drilling, and laying down the plumbing.

And the pipes sound amazing too! Along with the other worksite noises, they create awesome music to dance to. It’s a joy to watch everything come together in BOUT!

This spectacle is one you don’t want to miss! A dance performance where you take part, and you won’t want to stop fixing things. The handyman in you is born!

And, of course, the broken washing machine gets fixed and in the end we can create a big chain reaction together with the public.

Come experience it!

TINKER TALES! has been nominated for the prestigious VSCD Jonge Zwaan Award 2025 for the most impressive youth dance production. The awards ceremony will take place during the Dutch Dance Days in Maastricht on October 3, 2025.

Also suitable for Special Primary Education (SBO) and Special Secondary Education (VSO). Lesson book and educational materials are included.

This performance is made possible in collaboration with the NormaFonds, Platform GroeneZaken.com, Duurzaam-Bedrijfsleven.nl, Duurzame-Blogs.com and Stoeries.nl.
