We have reached our base goal of $6000 CAD! We are now working towards our stretch goal of $8000 CAD. Thank you to everyone who has helped us along the way! Support the journey to hell and back with Doctor Faustus at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival! Dandelion Theatre and Apothecary Theatre are teaming up to present a gripping, stripped-down rendition of Christopher Marlowe's timeless tragedy. Dive into the depths of dualities, as Doctor Faustus grapples with power, regret, and his infernal pact with Mephistopheles.
