Others were seeing it for the fourth time or even more. They were told to come back; they&rsquo;ll get the message eventually!<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>We know that this trio has been performing \u00ab\u00a0Broue\u00a0\u00bb for at least 35 years, a play that evokes fond memories of tavern days with regulars, special guests, and one last customer who thinks it&rsquo;s the best place to give his son a sex education. We were engaged for over two hours. The Juliette-Lassonde Arts Centre was packed. Did you know that, to date, more than 3.3 million people have come to see this play, which will continue running until the end of 2015?<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>After the show, we were delighted that the three actors spent some time with our group. We thank them.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3a674e e-con-full e-flex jltma-glass-effect-no e-con e-child\" data-id=\"3a674e\"
