Faust

Sell your soul. What would you pay for the love of a beautiful girl? Faust bargains with his very soul. With the devil Méphistophélès at his side, he seduces the beautiful and innocent Marguerite and then curses her as well. The darkest faces of love come heart-wrenchingly into view, as Faust is damned to pay the price and serve the devil for all eternity.

Gounod's Faust draws on everything that makes opera irresistible. Beloved arias, uncensored passion, and bargains that have eternal consequences combine into a theatrical tour de force that continues to spellbind audiences 150 years after its premiere. Join us at the Pantages Theater for this drama of love and despair, heaven and hell.
