Production synopsis: Dad’s favorite way to help get his three rowdy kiddos to bed is by telling them bedtimes stories. However, dad tends to forget how the classic tales go, so he uses his imagination to keep the stories engaging. These bedtime stories sure aren’t the same ones you grew up with! The entire family will certainly enjoy this production.
