“Faust” Beware!

This man is willing to sell his soul to the Devil!


But only in the play “Faust”. A2 Drama is currently rehearsing their A2 production of “Faust” by Wolfgang Von Goethe. The production should be performing toward the end of this term, with lucky audiences being invited to see the production for the students A2 Drama - A level Exam.

The play is about a man who wants so much knowledge he is willing to sell his soul to the Devil to get it. Written originally in German by Goethe in 1773, it took him twenty years to   finish. The plot has been used again and again since including “Bedazzled” (2000) with Brendan Fraser and Elizabeth Hurley. Using the modernist ways of telling old stories it has projections, cameras and theatricality to make it exciting, moving and funny.
