Commentaires : In Doctor Faustus, the greatest tragedy in English before Shakespeare, Marlowe puts some of the greatest poetry ever written for the stage and a good deal of anarchic comedy at the service of a mythic tale illustrating mankind’s insatiable desire for knowledge and power.

This was the first production of Doctor Faustus at the Globe.
Presse : "Dr Faustus isn't a great play...there is never quite enough frisson between the leads. This is a confident and lucid account of Marlowe's most famous work, but it's not electrifying." Henry Hitchings for The Evening Standard

"Rude, robust, bawdy, magical and violent, it is a provocatively entertaining production." Neil Norman for The Daily Express

"This is a Faustus that often looks impressive, with its sinister choreography and grotesque designs, but when it comes to genuine chills and thrills, the audience is left seriously short-changed." Charles Spencer for The Daily Telegraph
