ETCetera is delighted to announce auditions for its Spring 2027 production: Chers Parents , directed by Janet Middleton, to be performed in French and English at La Petite salle, Auderghem Cultural Centre 24th-27th February and 3rd-6th March 2027.
When the Gauthier parents win the lottery, the family’s resentments, hypocrisies and secrets are revealed with dramatic effect.
The early audition date is due to the nature of the piece: how the play will be divided between the two languages will depend upon the casting of the piece. In addition Janet has prior commitments which means that the rehearsal process will be sporadic and only fully commence in mid November.

The Parents:
In their late 60s, Jeanne, Vincent The casting of these 2 roles will be that one parent is a native French speaker, the other a native English speaker. The designation of these 2 roles will directly affect the French/English division of the play.

Jules: younger brother, wants to write his epic novel, but for now is a poor and somewhat unsuccessful journalist supported by his parents.
