Madame Bovary

This stage play is an adaptation of Gustave Flaubert's acclaimed classic, taking us into the world of Emma Bovary, a woman trapped in a monotonous marriage and a social reality that does not satisfy her…

The play follows Emma Bovary, the protagonist of Gustave Flaubert's novel, in her attempt to escape a routine married life and a social reality that does not fulfil her. Her pursuit of passion and luxury through forbidden loves and unattainable desires leads her towards a tragic outcome, and the production focuses on the clash between romantic dreams and everyday life.

The adaptation, written by Eduardo Galán based on Flaubert's text, is directed by Carla Nyman. The cast includes Andrea Duro in the title role, alongside Eduardo Velasco, Javier Hernández and Pedro Rubio. The performance is given in Spanish.

As a complementary activity, L'Auditori de Cornellà is collaborating with the Biblioteques Municipals to offer a selection of readings that expand on the world of the work.
