Striding Lion Performance Group and Athenaeum Theatre Productions present

The Great and Terrible Doctor Faustus

 

The hour draws nigh for the Great and Terrible Doctor Faustus to attempt his most mind-bending magic act yet: The Vanishing Cabinet. In this immersive dance-theatre soiree, you will follow Faustus and the seven deadly sins through the darkest corners of the Athenaeum Theatre, a century-old landmark full of ghosts from the past. Pursue revenge and fortune in a theatrical purgatory run by the Devil himself. Meet glamorous characters from yesteryear with scores to settle and secrets to tell. See backstage like you never have before. 

 

Who knows what your future has in store? All you have to do is pick a card and follow the darkness… 

 

Note: This performance requires constant audience movement, including up and down stairs, but there is an accessible route for those who require it. Additionally, you will be split up from your group unless you notify the box office that you need to stick together. Please contact the Athenaeum Theatre Box Office at (773) 935-6875 to arrange for special accommodations.
