The Tragic Tale of Dr Faustus
Presented by Sepulchre Serenade
A Gothic Dark Folk/Metal Opera
A gothic metal opera of blood, poetry, and damnation.
Sepulchre Serenade presents The Tragic Tale of Dr. Faustus—a darkly immersive reimagining of the classic tale of ambition, temptation, and eternal torment.
Against the backdrop of the witch hunts, this genre-defying spectacle fuses classical and dark folk with the fury of black, doom, and thrash metal. Featuring haunting visuals, special effects, and the words of Shakespeare, Blake, and Marvell, the show is equal parts horror, theatre, and unholy ritual.
With blood-soaked pageantry and a spellbinding original score, Faustus invites you to descend into the abyss.
Not quite opera, not quite metal, not quite theatre—this is something far more monstrous.
