"Bertel the monster baby prefers larks to letters in a wonderful comedy about the ambitious rearing of kids.
Half of a good show for children is a good script. This is the case here with the brilliant off-beat yarn about the boy who has to go to school almost before he is born. The lines are sharp and the plot is fabulously well tailored. We go off on a limb time after time having great fun as we go along. But strong direction and impressive acting by the company stays our course maintaining the criticism of modern day ambitions for kids' upbringing. Or should we say values..."

THE BOY WHO WAS BORN TO GO TO SCHOOL- a contemporary comedy by Bo hr. Hansen about living, learning and playing!
The visual and quirky comedy about the boy Oskar Valdemar - or rather Bertel - who happens into his parents' world dressed in a suit and ready to start school. Mum and Dad don't feel that their child is quite ready for school yet, so with the best intentions they begin to prepare him for the hardships of life. They soon find out that Oskar Valdemar is capable of a lot more on his own than they had imagined....
Entertaining contemporary theatre for kids (and their adults). A show about living, learning and playing!
