English Theatre Düsseldorf is currently casting for their upcoming winter production of LUNGS by Duncan Macmillan, to be directed by Lily McLeish and to be performed in Düsseldorf in January 2026.

 

"The world is getting hotter, there’s unrest overseas—the seas themselves aren’t very calm—and one couple is thinking about having a child. LUNGS is a smart and funny drama that follows a couple through the surprising lifecycle of their relationship, as they grapple with questions of family and change, hope, betrayal, happenstance, and the terrible pain that you can only cause the people you love."

 

Rehearsals: 3-4 weeks in total in December and January, 4-5 days a week (exact days and times to be planned to suit both the company and the chosen actor) at both a rehearsal space in Düsseldorf and online.

 

Performances: max. 10 performances in total, from middle to end of January 2026.

 

Artist fee: 2.000€ Flat fee

 

Please note: No accommodation or travel expenses can be provided, therefore actors who are not local to Düsseldorf/surrounding area, should take this into consideration when applying.
