Madame Bovary without the boredom? Mission accepted! Two quirky, funny young women revisit one of literature's greatest novels. Their aim: to tell you all about Madame Bovary without making you feel the slightest bit bored. Mission accepted! And there's something for everyone... For you, who suffered terribly reading it at the time. For you, who haven't read it, but dream of shining in society. For you, who doubt: is it Balzac or Zola? For you, the Flaubert lover, who tolerates being talked about with a sense of humor. After "Mais t'as quel âge?!" and "On dirait ton père", discover the new creation by Camille Broquet and Marion Pouvreau. This hit of the Festival d'Avignon 2024 is a resolutely modern and joyful classic revisited. Driven by their talent, this show shatters clichés about classic literature. With lively humor and a healthy dose of imagination, it proves that masterpieces are not dusty. Using the codes of our time to decipher this work, the actresses demonstrate that Madame Bovary is surprisingly relevant, as captivating as today's most popular TV series. A rendez-vous to desacralize art and rediscover a great text without preconceptions. By and about : Camille Broquet and Marion Pouvreau Directed by: Edward Decesari What they say: La Provence: "A guaranteed favorite". Ouest France: "An explosive, funny and touching duo". Arts Culture Évasions: "A successful bet, hands down! La Théâtrothèque: "Flaubert must be writhing with laughter where he is" La Revue du Spectacle: "Cleverly offbeat and virtuoso. A notorious talent." Et si on allait au théâtre ce soir: "Comble du chic... One would even want to reread this famous work by Flaubert" Théâtoile: "This version is simply exceptional". canari74 (Billetreduc.com - 10/10): "Excellent. Two great actresses on stage! I loved it so much! You really have to go. It's full of humor and lightness. Definitely worth seeing." didjipat33 (Billetreduc.com - 10/10): "Emma superstar. Bravo to these two energetic and inventive actresses who dissected Flaubert's landmark novel. It was a real pleasure to meet up with all these familiar characters. The staging is fantastic. A real 2025 favorite. A spectator (Billetreduc.com - 10/10): "Le Bonbon. How do you present a famous and 'boring' novel? By using humor and distance, and by showing that boredom is part of every everyday situation. The two comedians bring dynamism and excitement." A plus for families: L'Atelier des Petits Artistes! La Scène de Mutzig is launching the Atelier des Petits Artistes, a new quality childcare service designed for families. While you're enjoying the Sunday shows at 4pm, your children, young explorers, will be learning about art and creativity under professional supervision. This simple, ingenious concept aims to make culture accessible to all, while easing the constraints for parents with young children.
