The Devil’s Passion
Two amazing evenings to get you thinking!
The Devil's Passion offers a radicallly different perspective on this timeless narrative: reversing the polarities, such that Christ is the antagonist, and Satan the protagonist and narrator,
An audacious 'hell's-eye view" of the Passion of Christ from a master storyteller, by turns comic, gripping, poetic, pungent and heart-stirring.
Spoiler alert: the Devil loses!
This is a significant professional production and St Mark's is hosting two nights of the Italian tour, and I am keen to get as many people to see it as possible. We have 100 seats each night.
If you are in Florence on 21 or 22 March, please make sure you don't miss this - it even has Italian subtitles (no, I don't know how either!). Bring your friends - they won't be disappointed.
