The Wizard Who Worked Wonders translated and freely adapted by DAVID TURNER from El Mdoico Prodiaioso by PEDRO CALDER6N DE LA BARCA (1600-81) with David Buck Lisa Harrow
Patrick Troughton and Lockwood West
Written two years after his most famous play Life is a Dream,
Calderón's version of the Faust legend portrays a complex view of religion, morality, nobility and contrasting peasant realism. In spite of its superficial setting in third century Antioch, the attitudes and characters are pure 17th-century Spanish. Cyprian sells his soul to the Devil in exchange for magical knowledge, but Satan in the end is powerless against his adversaries' faith and free will.
