Doctor Faustus Project

Write a proposal for a staging of Marlowe’s Doctor Faustus. Consider how you would physically stage the play. What kind of set would you use? How would you portray the devils? How would you deal with the more difficult-to-stage scenes? How would you depict the passage of time? What themes would your staging stress?

Due next Wednesday.

Also, please find a new independent reading book.  Stick to the list from the beginning of the year.

Essay
