What are you prepared to sacrifice to achieve your dreams? Bristol Old Vic Theatre School presents an immersive journey through the underground tunnels of the Loco Klub, Bristol’s home for alternative arts.


Enter the world of a passionate theatre troupe as insidious political shadows close in on society. Based on Klaus Mann's controversial 1936 novel, Mephisto is a haunting exploration of ambition, compromise and the seductive power of fame. As one actor faces an ultimate choice, we witness how quickly principles can be abandoned when opportunity - or the devil - comes knocking.


This promenade performance invites audiences to celebrate the soul of theatre-making, whilst questioning its resilience in the face of tyranny. Join us for a powerful production which strikes a disturbing chord with today’s political landscape.
