Jill Rogati directs a comic retelling of the Faust legend, the story of a scholar who sells his soul to the devil in exchange for knowledge, best known from Marlowe's Doctor Faustus and Goethe's Faust. Rogati stages it in the manner of commedia dell'arte, the Italian tradition of masks, physical comedy and playful improvisation, to make the solemn subject silly. It is Gordon College Theatre's fall mainstage production.
Fri Feb 19 – Sat Feb 27
Dave Malloy's electropop opera sets a slice of Tolstoy's War and Peace: young Natasha Rostova, waiting in Moscow for her fiancé to return from the war with Napoleon, falls under the spell of the roguish Anatole Kuragin, and Pierre Bezukhov, a family friend in an existential crisis, is left to pick up the pieces. Andrew Lease directs, with musical direction by Jess Modaff and movement by Jill Rogati.
