SHAKE HANDS WITH THE DEVIL

A trade with the Devil. The ageing Faust sells his soul for another lifetime in which to live and love. But the Devil always wins. Marguerite, the object of Faust’s desire, is borne to heaven. Faust’s destiny is Hell.

Gounod’s 1859 opera is a pearl of the 19th-century French repertoire, from a time when the Opéra in Paris insisted on lavish, spectacular productions. Among its most famous moments are the evergreen Jewel Song and the Soldiers’ Chorus.

Jack Furness (“brilliant and bold,” The Guardian) directs one of the world’s most manipulative love stories, with the prize-winning young American tenor Duke Kim in the title role, and riveting Irish soprano Jennifer Davis as Marguerite.
