Top of PageWittenberg
Set during late October of 1517, this smart, sprightly and audacious battle of wits features university colleagues Dr. Faustus (a man of appetites), Martin Luther (a man of faith), and their student Hamlet, the Prince of Denmark (a youth struggling not only with his beliefs but also with his tennis game). WITTeNBeRG brings us the story behind the stories in a highly entertaining and accessible exploration of reason versus faith.
