Synopsis

Moliere's farcical, tragic, anarchic Don Juan (1665) is the inspiration for Patrick Marber's new play in which the action of the original is relocated to present day Soho, London. Whereas Moliere condemned his anti-hero to a literal Hell, Marber condemns him to a hell of his own making. It centers on the destitute, the delirious, the broken and the brazen, the hustlers and hoorays, the media movers and merciless whores--all packed in to one seething square mile.
