Die Theater edition Credits: Theatre director, Peter Stein ; film director, Peter Schöhofer (Faust I) and Thomas Grimm (Faust II) Cast: Johanna Wokalek, Michael König, Elisabeth Orth, Sven-Eric Bechtolf, Roland Koch, Andrea Clausen Summary: Stein founded his own theater for three years to produce Faust I & II. Performed over 20 hours, Faust I & II was performed at the Hannover Expo in 2000. The staging was perhaps the summation of Stein's attention to textual detail and expansive but always meticulously rendered visual style: a blood-red carpet to signify Helen's sacrifice; a split-personality devil and, in Stein's original conception, two actors playing Faust. Though the production was savaged by German critics for slavish adherence to the text, Michael Billington deemed the production "a brave, invigorating and highly theatrical experience" PAL |
