Doctor Faustus

Overview

The Tragical History of the Life and Death of Doctor Faustus, commonly referred to simply as Doctor Faustus, is an Elizabethan tragedy by Christopher Marlowe, based on German stories about the title character Faust. It was written sometime between 1589 and 1592. We filmed it in Canterbury where it was written by Marlowe. We were lucky to film it in Greyfriar’s Chapel in the exact room where 420 years earlier Marlowe studied as a child. This webseries is Mari Lewis’s directorial debut.
