Madame Bovary

Description

A theatrical adaptation of the famous novel by Gustave Flaubert from 1857. A timeless story about the grayness of everyday life, dreamlike visions, and the omnipresent advertisement for happiness. Naive Emma longs for an exciting life and great love, which she has only known through the pages of romantic novels. However, in her marriage to a sensible and caring country doctor, her dreams and rosy visions clash with the grayness of everyday life. Emma suffocates in the ordinary and the banal; fleeting excitements come from love affairs, but even those do not match her dreamlike visions.
