Doctor Faustus is a radical reworking of Marlowe’s iconic play about power, greed, and sin.
Step into a world of lies and façade.
See justice exercised in real time.
Doctor Faustus, written by Christopher Marlowe, with new writing by Seb Carrington and additional material by Lily Zhang, is a cautionary tale, scarily relevant in a time of a worldwide political trend towards the right. It tells the story of a man who sells his soul to the devil in order to gain “omnipotence”. In this spectacular, radical new production, the terrifying and potent relevance of Marlowe’s text is brought to the surface through an abstract, expressionist medium.
Directed by Seb Carrington
