Doctor Faustus

After years of study and ambition, Doctor Joan Faustus turns to the forbidden arts, striking a terrible bargain with Lucifer himself. In exchange for knowledge, power, and worldly pleasures, she surrenders her soul, with the debt due in 24 years.

Guided by her demonic companion Mephistopheles, Faustus journeys through a world of spectacle and temptation, encountering the Seven Deadly Sins, conjuring spirits, and seeking glory beyond mortal limits. But time moves swiftly, and every bargain carries a price.

Pop Yer Clogs Theatre presents a bold new adaptation of Christopher Marlowe’s Doctor Faustus: a darkly comic, gothic tale of ambition, excess, and damnation. Drawing on the traditions of Commedia dell’arte, this 16th-century story is brought vividly to life for modern audiences.

A journey into temptation awaits… but some roads lead only to Hell.
