Doctor Faustus
by Christopher Marlowe
directed by Claudia Bach

Performances : live via Zoom Friday, May 21 and Saturday, May 22, 2021

Set in a modern, internet-forum world, Faustus connects with some dangerous minds online and is dragged into a world of conspiracy, magic, and evil. After making a deal with a servant of Hell to unlock the truth and powers of the world, Faustus gets more than he bargained for when his payment comes due. On a backdrop of reddit and internet indoctrination, this production explores what it means to access the truth and to confront reality, whatever it may be.
