DOCTOR FAUSTUS

RESIST TEMPTATION.  HELL IS WAITING.

Horror, comedy, suspense and tragedy combine in Present Moment’s interpretation of Christopher Marlowe’s classic drama.

To bring the Faustus legend to life, the production creates a teeming modern metropolis, an ominous industrial landscape where every move is watched. Mephistopheles becomes a puppet master, conjuring and animating the characters that people Faustus’ journey to damnation.
