Theater show - Roman performance
with L'Eventuel Hérisson Bleu company, Hugo Mallon and Gustave Flaubert
From 15 years (duration 3h)
Madame Bovary's main character? The novel itself! Hugo Mallon takes the question of adaptation to the stage, literally bringing the book to life in an augmented reading for five performers, a film studio and a live music set. The living embodiment of the Flaubert effect!
"Flaubert again, Madame Bovary at last? Hugo Mallon, a fervent passeur of texts, is back with Flaubert, after a striking Éducation sentimentale created at Le Phénix in 2018. In this new "novel-performance", he entrusts the reading to actresses and actors, when they are not embodying the novel?s colorful characters. He also calls on other forms of expression - cinema, music - as many points of view open to the public?s freedom. It's a delightful long-term experience that invites us to immerse ourselves in the very substance of literary emotion.
