Originating from the medieval morality plays, I was inspired by how Marlowe utilised the devil and angel dynamic in 'Dr Faustus' where Marlowe specifically the ideas of temptation vs purity. This duality is one I believe is more prominent than ever in today's teenage culture, with social media and the internet exposing teenagers to everything from smoking culture to unfiltered content that promotes violence and crime.

The Good Angel's goal is to convince Faustus to abandon his sins and return to God, while the Bad Angel tries to get the scholar to continue in his pursuit of magic and so remain loyal to the devil. Traditionally this would have been staged in such a way where the evil spirit is staged below the good spirit to show this metaphorical pulling into sin
