Whole school production – 25 to 28 Jan

The Tiffin Girls’ School presents
The Tragical History of Dr Faustus By Christopher Marlowe

We are delighted to invite you to the whole school production of The Tragical History of Dr Faustus by Christopher Marlowe.

Come and watch as the students take on this 16th Century play with a modern twist. You will be thrilled by the mix of original language alongside the punk rock styling, as you learn how a man sold his soul to the Devil and paid the ultimate price. The play has adult themes and does reference suicide. The production will take place in the Hall on the following dates:

Wednesday 25 January 7.00pm
Thursday 26 January 4.00pm
Friday 27 January 7.00pm
Saturday 28 January 12.00pm

The play’s tragic hero, Faustus, is a brilliant German scholar who feels he has reached the limits of divine academic learning, and devotes himself to the study of magic. He makes a pact signed in blood, with the evil spirit Mephistopheles, to sell his soul to the devil. In exchange for 24 years of service, Lucifer gives Faustus a life of pleasure, magical power and illicit knowledge of the secrets of the universe.

Tickets are available via ParentMail under ‘Dr Faustus’ for £8. Please purchase your tickets in advance of the show by Friday 20 January, there will be limited availability on the door.
