LA FURA DELS BAUS

• Written by: Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
• Directed by: Alex Ollé - Carlos Padrissa

“F@ust Version 3.0” is a free adaption of “Faust” by Goethe, father of German romanticism. From this work, the Catalan theatre company La Fura Dels Baus creates a staging with the characteristic resources of the language of the company incorporated with theatrical texts. The stage appears to be a giant screen of a CD ROM programme or a Web page, where the characters, guided by Mephistoteles, navigate interactively through an infinity of sub-screens which continually open and close. The music is like a residual symphony at the end of the century, with the remains music of all styles superimposed. In the orchestra pit a musician, like a conductor, conducts an invisible orchestra made up of a computer which interprets the score. “F@uast Version 3.0” is a unique theatrical event inspired in publicity and in modern communication techniques.
