Don Juan in Soho

Don Juan in Soho — Patrick Marber’s new version of Molière’s 17th century classic — is set in 21st century London. Molière’s farcical, tragic, anarchic original of 1665 is relocated to modern day Soho: swank, new hotels and festering, old clip joints, crackheads in alleys, and cokeheads in clubs. The destitute, the delirious, the broken and the brazen, the hustlers and hoorays, the media movers and merciless whores are all packed in to one seething square mile. Don Juan is the infamous amoral hedonist in a society entranced by sensation.
