Faust

A Punchdrunk Production

In collaboration with the National Theatre

´Tis magic, magic that hath ravished me.

A vast, abandoned archive transformed into the heaven and hell of Faust's tragic downfall.

5 STARS
Metro

'One of the most memorable evenings you're likely to have all year. How thrilling that theatre can, momentarily, safely, thrust us way outside our comfort zone.'
5 STARS
Evening Standard

'Stamina, a stout pair of shoes and the ability to use your imagination. The rewards are greater than anything Mephistopheles could ever offer.'
5 STARS
Guardian

'Allusive and serendipitous, this is a fiendishly clever telling of a familiar tale.'
