This summer De Westerkerk in Leeuwarden offers a diverse program, especially for toddlers, preschoolers and their parents. On Sunday, July 5, the music theater performance “Gonnie en Gijsje samen op pad” (Gonnie and Gijsje on the road) will kick off (2+).
The play is based on the famous picture books by Olivier Dunrea. With (Dutch) songs by Ageeth de Haan, Gonnie and Gijsje experience a musical adventure for young and old. In their voyage they soon discover that nothing is what it seems. In this way, the world around them transforms into a musical playground. A playground where everyone is welcome to play and sing. No puppets are used in this performance, but the goslings Gonnie and Gijsje are symbolically depicted. The performance is played by Kira Kool, who has a lot of experience with youth and school performances.
The performance lasts approximately 40 minutes and is suitable for children aged 2 to 5 and their parents. Language: Dutch. Afterwards, pancakes and ice cream are served in De Westerkerk’s café.
