Modern Adaptation of Stendhal's Classic 'Le Rouge et le Noir' by Catherine Marnas Set for April 2025

The timeless themes of ambition and societal hypocrisy come to life in a new theatrical presentation at Scène 55 in Mougins.
Catherine Marnas will present a new adaptation of Stendhal's renowned novel _Le Rouge et le Noir_ at Scène 55 in Mougins on April 25, 2025. Originally published in 1830, the novel delves into themes of ambition, love, and social hypocrisy through the narrative of Julien Sorel, a young man from a modest background seeking to climb the social ladder in post-revolutionary France.

Marnas, noted for her innovative and impactful directorial style, has reinterpreted this classic work, breathing contemporary relevance into its exploration of human ambition.

Her adaptation strives to maintain fidelity to the original text while presenting a modern theatrical lens that engages the audience with critical questions surrounding ambition and the socio-structural influences on individual choices and destinies.

The performance is scheduled to take place on Friday, April 25, 2025, at 8:30 PM, and ticket prices range from 10 to 28 euros.

For more information and reservations, interested attendees can visit the official website of Scène 55.
