Production details

The King's Players presents a new production of Christopher Marlowe's classic tale of greed, lust and damnation. This new version, set in the mid-1980s corporate world of high finance, blind ambition and demonic corruption sees John Faustus, a greedy, arrogant young high-flyer sign a contract with Lucifer in exchange for twenty-four years of supernatural power. The price? His soul. With a female seductress Mephistopheles, a 22-strong cast of sharp-suited business men and masked devils, and a killer soundtrack, this exciting new production puts a contemporary spin on a classic play.
