WIN TICKETS TO OPENING NIGHT OF FAUSTUS!
When Doctor Faustus made his misguided decision to shake hands with a seemingly well-meaning devil incarnate, his actions were cemented in literary history.
Amidst quenching his thirst for knowledge, selling his soul to the devil, and getting caught up in many complicated situations, Faustus is a busy man. Adapted by Michael Gow and co-produced by Bell Shakespeare, Queensland Theatre Company re-tells the tale of Faustus, staged at Brisbane Powerhouse, May 30 to June 25.
Playwright Michael Gow draws on the various tellings and retellings of Faustus to assemble an evocative kaleidoscope of the ancient legend. Starring the irresistible John Bell and staged at the Powerhouse Theatre, Faustus will draw on choreography, musical compositions and multimedia to caution how a lust for power can drive a person to the edge of self-destruction and damnation..
