Doctor Faustus
by Christopher Marlowe
Knowledge is power, and Dr. Faustus wants it all. The mysterious scholar sets his sights on mastering the dark arts and strikes a deal with the beguiling Mephistopheles to make the magic happen. In this playful, seductive fever dream, Faustus conjures legends, dines with emperors, and throws down with the Seven Deadly Sins. Packed with spectacle and supernatural flair, Marlowe’s classic becomes a satirical and soul-stirring thrill ride where unchecked ego meets ultimate consequence. This summer, Doctor Faustus brings the heat. After all, when you play with fire… there’s hell to pay. Free in Griffith Park.
Doctor Faustus contains portrayals of devils and acts of violence with blood. It may be frightening for younger or highly sensitive children or other people. Email us and we'll be happy to answer any specific questions you may have about the performance.
