Whilst Mephisto has no effect as an image of horror anymore, a phantom of the arabic gangster has an increasing effect on society and politics.
A story about demonized characters which loosen themselves from their assigned roles is staged with the help of Goethe, Milton and the actors’ experiences of portraying these characters.Through linguistic and physical reflection a binary understanding of the world is to be questioned, with its classifications of good and evil, top and bottom, male and female.
