Mephisto
Mephisto is a character from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's 'Faust', representing the devil or a demon who makes a pact with Faust, offering him knowledge and pleasure in exchange for his soul. In the recent adaptation 'Faustus in Africa!' by William Kentridge and Handspring Puppet Company, Mephisto is portrayed by a live actor, adding a dynamic contrast to the puppet characters and emphasizing the themes of temptation and moral conflict amidst the backdrop of colonialism.
