Faustus is a brilliant academic whose destructive thirst for knowledge leads him down a path to damnation when he sells his soul to Lucifer. From the splendour of Emperor Charles V's court to the excesses of the Pope's banquet in Rome, Faustus experiences all the earthly delights on offer in this world and beyond with the magical powers granted by his devilish companion, Mephistopheles. But his time is fast running out... In a basement room deep beneath the rolling quad of Trinity College, a scholar is preparing to offer the devil his soul in exchange for absolute power... Join Creation Theatre Company as we transform the world-famous Blackwell’s bookshop into the setting for Christopher Marlowe’s spell-binding story of the demon Mephistophilis, the quest for knowledge and a flawed man willing to pay the ultimate price.
