Gustave Flaubert’s novel Madame Bovary is considered a masterpiece of French realism and a pioneering work of literary modernity. Flaubert devoted five years to writing this work, which was published in 1856 and caused a scandal due to its unflinching portrayal of adultery and forbidden desires. With his precise, distantly observing style, Flaubert created a new form of storytelling that rendered inner states and social constraints with striking clarity. This tension between dream and reality forms the foundation of Bovary by Christian Spuck, one of the most successful productions of the 2023/24 season. At the center is Emma Bovary, trapped in the confines of provincial life, the monotony of a loveless marriage, and the desires that threaten to overwhelm her existence. Her passion for beauty, glamour, and pleasure grows with every page of cheap novels and every fashion illustration from Paris, drawing her into a world that is both unattainable and irresistibly seductive. In her search for self-determination, she becomes lost in illusions, trying to fill the impossible with affairs, luxury, and fleeting moments of happiness, spiraling into guilt, shame, and despair that culminates in her tragic suicide. Spuck translates Flaubert’s psychological precision into a stage version in which the collapse of Emma’s life is experienced as an intense, moving psychological portrait. Suitable for ages 10 and above

Point of Touch

“I don’t want strangers to touch me on the subway. And yet I hope that if I were to fall one day, someone would come to me.”   POINT OF TOUCH stems from these words. Not from a desire to celebrate closeness or from the belief that we can truly understand... moreabout: Point of Touch
