Johnny Faustus - April 2014


The classic story of Faust is brought into the 21st century in this modern retelling, written by the Staines Players' very own Matthew Bowman.
Johnny Faustus, a gifted but somewhat withdrawn university student, is on the brink of a world-changing breakthrough in his energy research. An encounter with a demon offers him everything he needs to make the world a better place - but at what cost?
Winner of 2 awards and 4 nominations at the Elmbridge Drama Festival, as well as 2 nominations at the Spelthorne and Runnymede drama festival, Johnny Faustus is an intelligent, thoughtful and sometimes darkly comic look at the price people will pay for what they believe in.
