Doctor Faustus at Independent Shakespeare Co.

A mysterious scholar sets his sights on mastering the dark arts and strikes a deal with the devil to make the magic happen. Marlowe’s playful, seductive fever dream becomes a satirical, soul-stirring thrill ride where unchecked ego meets ultimate consequence. After all, when you play with fire… there’s hell to pay.

This productions contains fairly graphic stage violence and references to sexuality. It may be too intense for younger viewers.
