Description

Join the jury as two of historys most stubborn intellectuals go head-to-head in a highly entertaining battle of reason versus faith. Set in late 1517, this smart, sprightly and audacious comedy centres on a fictitious meeting between university colleagues Dr. Faustus (a man of appetites), Martin Luther (a man of faith), and their student Hamlet (a young Prince struggling not only with his beliefs but also with his tennis game).This sparkling celebration of history, language, academia and religion by award-winning American playwright David Davalos will appeal to anyone looking for the answers to lifes big questions.

Reviews

"Clever, argumentative, funny and thoughtful it has a wicked wit. As a playfully arresting meditation on free will, religion and academia it works too." The Times
