Group of students write, produce and act in upcoming play

Hidden in a cabin on Orcas Island over spring break, seven Western students created the first draft of the upcoming play 鈥/faust,鈥 which, through temptation and desire for power, asks its audience, 鈥淲hat is your soul worth?鈥

The play, which will run Tuesday, June 2, to Saturday, June 6, was inspired by Christopher Marlowe鈥檚 鈥淭he Tragical History of Doctor Faustus鈥 and Johann von Goethe鈥檚 鈥淔aust,鈥 two plays that follow the fate of individuals who sacrifice moral integrity for their personal ambition and desire for success.
