Dream
ETU Playground – 10, 11 & 12 October 2025
A Performance in a New Format
ETU is announcing a new type of performance for theatre enthusiasts to sink their teeth into! Written, directed and performed by our theatre community.
ETU Playground is a performance that consists of a set of shorter plays, created by different subgroups united under the theme: ‘Dream’. The performances are mini plays or separate scenes, either original or from existing work. These mini plays allow the creators to try out new materials and take on a more experimental role than our regular performances. Playground is where discoveries are made.
The ETU Playground is performed at Theaterschool Utrecht
Friday 10 October 20.00h
Saturday 11 October 20.00h
Sunday 12 October 15.00h
Silence
Only two people came to the funeral of Astrid Halvorsen. One was the nurse who had looked after her during the last years of her life. The other was a journalist, asking questions.
“Where was she from?”
“Did she ever talk about her life?”
“What did she do during the war?”
Questions no one could answer. But there are always rumours.

The Waiting Room
Three strangers find themselves in a surreal waiting room that floats between reality and dreams. Each is offered a chance to re-enter a long-abandoned dream and choose whether to return to reality or stay in their dream permanently. As Luna, Mira, and Theo navigate their dreams, will they choose to stay or go back?

Overtime
Clancey is the employee of the month, every month -- though he's lost sight of why he works at all. When a late night at the office causes him to miss an important moment with his brother, Clancey is forced to reconsider his purpose, and his dreams.
