ECC: Puss in Boots (30 Jan – 1 Feb 2026)

Join us for a magical tale of cats, ogres, millers and postmen in the ECC’s 2026 pantomime, Puss in Boots!

When Tom is tricked out of his inheritance by his wicked but not very bright brothers Dick and Harry, he sets out to make his fortune with nothing but a cat to keep him company. And so begin Puss and Tom’s adventures… with a sprinkle of magic, more than one pair of boots and a trio of naughty kittens, the pair wend their way to Castle Hazard, ancestral home of the eponymous Duke and Duchess and their headstrong daughter Daisy. Helped, and occasionally hindered, by their friends Auntie the nursemaid, Billy the postie and even a vaguely familiar ogre, Tom and Daisy seek their happy ending – via a whole lot of singing, dancing and slightly-less-terrible-than-last-year jokes.

Don’t miss out on the purrrrrfect way to dispel the winter blues, and book your tickets now!

ATC: How I Learned to Drive (26 Feb-7 Mar 2026)

How I Learned to Drive by Paula Vogel is sharp, funny, and quietly devastating—in the best possible way. This Pulitzer Prize-winning play pairs laugh-out-loud humor with fearless storytelling, inviting audiences into a coming-of-age story that’s as entertaining as it is resonant. At a time when one in five girls worldwide experiences sexual violence or harassment, Vogel’s play feels urgent without ever becoming heavy-handed. Come for the wit, stay for the insight, and leave reminded of theater’s power to move, challenge, and delight.

​Directed by Carrie Ellwanger

Performing at the Warehouse Studio Theatre in Schaerbeek

Would you like to direct a show for BLOC ? – Call for pitches for shows in 2027

BLOC is looking for ideas for its Spring and Autumn shows for 2027.  Do you have a proposal and see yourself as the stage director? Do you have a friend or acquaintance who does? Then this information is for you!

The Spring show will most likely be performed at De Bosuil Cultural Centre in Overijse (350 seats) at the end of May or the beginning of June, the Autumn show will be performed in November at the Cultural Centre in Auderghem (670 seats). 

BLOC is looking for shows which accommodate a cast from a range of ages and nationalities, with good chorus opportunities, as BLOC has quite large membership. The spring show can be more edgy, innovative or just more suitable for a smaller audience than the Autumn show. Auditions will most likely be held in January 2027 for the Spring and in June 2027 for the Autumn show.

If you want to make a successful pitch, it is important to have (most of) your team in place (stage director, stage manager, musical director and, where relevant, choreographer). The BLOC Committee is happy to point you in the right direction, if you should be missing candidates for one or the other position during pitch preparation. The producer of the show will be proposed by the BLOC Committee.

You should also find out if the rights (if necessary) are available for your proposed show. Please do not make inquiries regarding this yourself, but contact our treasurer Alex Just (treasurer.bloc@proximus.be), who will do this on BLOC’s behalf.

If you are interested in becoming a director for BLOC (this is an unpaid position), please send your pitch to BLOC’s chairman (blocchairman@gmail.com) by 18.1.2026. Please be ready to present your ideas to the Committee on the 11.2.2026.
