Presentation
Come and see a performance of *Madame Bovary* at the Théâtre Montansier.
The adaptation focuses on Charles — who opens and closes the story —, on Emma, of course, her lovers Léon and Rodolphe, as well as on the shopkeeper Lheureux, the architect of the final tragedy.
Flaubert spent five years writing his work. He meticulously reworked, crossed out and corrected his numerous pages until he found the exact word, one that was just right in both meaning and sound. To test the flow of the text, he read it aloud and put it through the ‘gueuloir’* test, refining every lexical nuance as well as the rhythm and musicality of his sentences.
