This weekend the To-Do list focuses on the Over Het Ij festival, a theater festival that takes place in various locations throughout the area of the Ij harbor... also known as the body of water behind Amsterdam Central Station. I've studied the program and scoped out which plays are non-dutch speaking audience friendly.

Saturday & Sunday:

Candyland; a play performaned by 15 children from Amsterdam and 15 children from Almere. A sandstorm hits a town and the only people left are children. The instructions also recommend you bring your pajama. 7pm start time, 2:30pm on Sunday. Location is the Windturbine Cornelis Douwes, a bus departs from the Festival Centre to get there. Price € 12.50 / € 11.50. Children younger than 15, € 8.50

Wild Boys; 3 women join a male rockband called wild boys. On stage they are idols, off stage they are still expected to behave like ladies. The struggle between the role you play in life and the role you'd like to play. Saturday and Sunday, 8pm, at the Pick Up Studio. Price € 12.50 / € 11.50

There may be more non-Dutch language plays in the festival but for this weekend these are the one's I found. Click around the program and see what you can see.
