Meneer Monster's Theater Hit returns to theaters in 2024.
​
Andy and Terry have been asked to create a theater play about their incredible treehouse. That's not so easy because where do you quickly get flying cats, a lemonade fountain, a monkey invasion, and a giant gorilla?
Fortunately, the boys have rehearsed really hard, and they're almost completely ready! But first, let's eat 100 marshmallows and tickle the parrot.
'The Waanzinnige Boomhut van 13 Verdiepingen' (The Amazing 13-Story Treehouse) is one of the most sold children's books in the Netherlands in recent times. This season, Meneer Monster, in collaboration with the Australian CDP Theatre Producers, sinks its teeth into this completely crazy story. They have transformed this bestseller into an equally insane theater performance full of outrageous humor and magical theatrical wizardry.

​
"A fantastic stage design that wouldn't be out of place in a blockbuster film production."
VSCD Theaterjury
​
"The children's jury awarded 'De Waanzinnige Boomhut van 13 Verdiepingen' for its original way of playing and storytelling, its bizarre and chaotic humor, the beautiful set design, and also because the creators show what you can do with imagination. 'They turned something simple into something very spectacular.'"
Kinderjury Zapptheaterpijs 2018
​
"Total anarchy reigns in the performance. After an hour in this utterly insane theater treehouse, both young and old bounce out of the theater with a big grin on their faces."
**** THEATERKRANT - HENRI DROST
​
"The trio acts with such infectious energy that it sweeps everyone along." (...) "Delicious theatrical nonsense that satisfies a series of laugh-inducing symptoms."
ANNETTE EMBRECHTS - VOLKSKRANT 17-10-2017
​
"It's just so good, so cleverly constructed. [...]
It's theater that all children in the Netherlands, and their parents, and those in Belgium should see. Because this is the power of theater. Because those who get to see this as a child have tasted why art, theater, imagination belong to the most beautiful things in life and should be cherished. [...]
Go! Don't hesitate. Go."
