Le petit chat est mort. • Va, je ne te hais point. • Je le vis, je rougis, je pâlis à sa vue. • Pour qui sont ces serpents qui sifflent sur vos têtes ? • C’est bien plus beau lorsque c’est inutile ! •

A play. A few voices.

No staging. No production. No need to turn the text into anything else.

A small group of readers comes together to read a play aloud, simply giving the words a voice.

The program moves between classic and contemporary theatre, different writers, different languages and different ways of hearing a text.

Sometimes, a play only needs to be heard.

Previous Perth French Theatre reading.

Follow the words. Hear the play.

The text is available during the reading, helping language learners follow more easily.

Fluent speakers can simply enjoy hearing the language and the play come alive.

Everyone listens to the same text, at their own pace.
