In his most challenging work to date, Czech playwright Vaclav Havel has given the Faust legend a provocative twist. His setting is 'the Institute, ' whose mission is to combat the 'irrational tendencies' in society through its scientific work. Personal and professional relationships at this 'lighthouse of truthful knowledge' are a tissue of lies and sycophancy in which all concerned willingly collude.

Temptation
Imagine our Enlightenment project off the rails, it is easy if you try. Okay that's the wrong Lenin, but should we think of the intrepid bureaucrat Polonius who warned of turning words, even as the Devil scared Martin Luther and the Karamazovs lose at the Fast Money Round? This was Doktor Faustus at work in the People's Utopia: something borrowed, something blue. All hues are welcome Orbán.
I think Temptation would dovetail nicely with Stoppard's Rock 'N' Roll. Havel's dialogue doesn't measure with Stoppard's but that could be a query for the Department of State Translation, room 101.
