DESCRIPTION

Casting for "Les Enfants Terribles," a world premiere theatrical production of a new adaptation of Jean Cocteau’s scandalous novella.

Synopsis: Paul and Elisabeth, two emotionally-sheltered teenage siblings, seclude themselves in a world of their own creation. A bubble of fantasy organized by rules and rituals only they understand. As they vie for dominance and love, the “enfants” play cruel games of one-upmanship amongst themselves and on their adoring companions, Gerard and Agatha. Reality creeps in, fantasies spin out, the borders of their worlds collapse and a downward spiral of betrayals leads to tragedy.
