Third Party gives you Faustus, all in the words of Christopher Marlowe - but not necessarily in the right order! With a breathless pace this piece is full of surprises. Including dance and song, live music, a little magic, and even a touch of ventriloquism as Faustus is mocked by his own image parodying his speech to Helen of Troy. Catch some of the most popular dramatic verse ever written served up with a dose of the comedy you would expect from one of the UK's most popular international touring companies. “Deliciously dangerous theatre” - TIME OUT |

All of the best bits of Marlowe's text, shot through with song, dance and a touch of magic. Fast, funny and full of surprises. Directed by John Wright.
Third Party tours nationally and internationally; the company performs in theatres, art centres, village halls, outdoor spaces and at Festivals. Third Party was formed in 1993 and since that time the company has given over 900 highly original and audacious performances of such works as HAMLET, RICHARD III , THE CHANGELING (which was performed at Battersea Arts Centre) and THE ALCHEMIST. Work with directors Ben Benison (Theatre Machine) and now John Wright gives a visual and comedic drive to their work.
The Rondo Theatre is supported by Bath and North East Somerset Council.
