Extremely rare! Discover a theatrical treasure with this highly coveted 1976 "Doctor Faustus" poster, a vivid celebration of Christopher Marlowe's 1592 Elizabethan tragedy. Helmed by the talented Polish director Bogdan Hussakowski, and starring Tadeusz Morawski in the key role, the show illuminates one man's journey into the dark arts, all while tackling big moral choices.

Skarzynski's creation mesmerizes, showcasing Faustus in elaborate, pink, sinew-like designs that unravel complex narratives of virtue and vice, against a bold black canvas accentuated with teal script.
