Alienated imagination or deranged mind? Ambitious aspirer or narcissistic maniac? In a topsy turvy world where antiquity rubs shoulders with a hell which is everywhere – and no sign of heaven in sight – Doctor Faustus may seem to some remarkably modern. The Faustian pact – a compromise of humanity for your heart’s desire – is as much a part of modern life as any religious doctrine. British Touring Shakespeare and Facsimile Productions presents an entertaining and accessible version of Doctor Faustus with a modern twist.
