Knowledge is losing its power today, as the internet brings an abundance of information to our fingertips. Yet, wealth and fame retain their place . They are also offered to Dr Black (Dr Čierny) in the production by The Karol Spišák Old Theatre based in the city of in Nitra. Though the character does not feature in the original story of Faustus, Dr Black is an foremost example of the world of an ordinary contemporary official who cannot resist and, without realising how, he becomes entangled in the nets of those most influential. Is there a way back from such a situation?
