October 20th-22nd | Het Amsterdams Theaterhuis | Performed in English

About the show

Next Thing You Know (“NTYK”) is a musical about four New Yorkers waking up from their invincible twenties and confronting adulthood in the city that never sleeps. It looks at a time in life when one day you wake up, and instead of a hangover, you have a job. Instead of a fling, you have a live-in girlfriend. And instead of naïve dreams, you have reality. Think: a musical episode of How I Met Your Mother or Friends.

Starring Cécile Henrot, Camille Gribbons, Jesse Finn, and Elliot Morgan with the talented Trish Butterfield and Rodney Giano as the female and male swings for the cast, this small show guarantees an evening of laughs and great music that you won’t want to miss!
