Spectacle Emma de Normandie, Noce Boréale – Millénium 2027

Emma of Normandy, the eponymous figure of the work, lived during a particularly violent era for women. Married twice, she reigned alongside her successive husbands and then her sons, who in turn became kings. She was a companion, a mother, a protector, but also a victim of these four men. She embodied power and weakness, domination and subjugation. The second installment, Emma of Normandy: A Northern Wedding, focuses on an exceptionally eventful period: four years in which four kings succeeded one another on the English throne. From Sven’s death to Aethelred’s return, through Edmund’s struggle and Knut’s ultimate victory, the narrative explores the rapid shifts in power. Emma charts her own destiny with remarkable determination, navigating her way between the roles of exiled queen, restored, and then crowned once more at the cost of a strategic alliance with the Danish conqueror.
