Teatro en El Verano: ¡Que Diablos! Fausto
5:30 PM - 7:30 PM
Join us for the world premiere of Christopher Marlowe's Doctor Faustus, reimagined and adapted by Jesús Valles as ¡Que Diablos! Fausto. This bilingual production brings new life to the timeless tale of ambition, love, and redemption, all through the lens of Latinx voices and artistry.
¡Que Diablos! Fausto is a tragic story and to tell it, we must start elsewhere, en el más allá de la tierra! En ese lugar eterno entre el cielo y el infierno. Where the world is made, and the fate of human souls is fiercely fought over. This bilingual adaptation is infused with music, humor, and a thoughtful message that will stay with you long after the show ends.
Teatro en El Verano is Rhode Island’s only bilingual traveling theater company, bringing vibrant performances to Latino neighborhoods across the state since 2016.

With an all-Latinx cast, theater becomes accessible, engaging, and reflective of our communities—performed in parks and public spaces where audiences can experience live theater in English and Spanish. Look for us en tu barrio and enjoy and celebrate culture, language, and storytelling.
