Summary:In March 2014, the University of Delaware's Resident Ensemble Players staged the first Part of Goethe's Faust, adapted and directed by Heinz-Uwe Haus, which forms the centrepiece and raison d'etre of this book. This book tracks the creative process of Haus's adaptation of the play and his attempts to elicit responses from his international networks to his question: how is Goethe's Faust relevant today? It brings together comments from stage and costume designers as they brought their own creativity and understanding of the audience to bear on the play, and presents a brief record of the production itself, through stage directions and the photography of Bill Browning. The book then explores the reactions the production has elicited amongst some of its audience.
