Faust takes the stage at the Brown Theatre-Wortham Center in Houston for a night of grand opera drama. Charles Gounod's classic retelling of the legendary scholar who makes a bargain with the devil is packed with soaring vocals, rich orchestral music and a story about ambition, love and temptation that has held audiences for generations. The Brown Theatre is a polished, elegant performing arts hall, so it's a great setting for a classic opera.
