Mefistofele

About the show

Mefistofele wagers that he can win Faust’s soul. Faust accepts a pact that grants him worldly pleasure in exchange for his soul at death. Restored to youth, Faust seduces Margherita, who is later imprisoned and condemned after poisoning her mother and drowning their child. She rejects Mefistofele and is redeemed. Faust then travels to ancient Greece and loves Helen of Troy, but finally seeks God’s forgiveness and dies redeemed.
