At the Global Brickworks Arts Project, Lucien Jung is rehearsing a modern day version of Doctor Faustus, with Milton Ridley in the eponymous role. Ridley is trying to include extra improvised lines to emphasise his own ideas on queer politics, but Lucien wants him to stick to the script. As yet they are unaware that Mrs Magritude Feather has learned of the project from Grapella Colswain, and has recruited the Militant Moralists (including Sevelanz Grimple and Emelda Bush) to set up a petition to the local council opposing the production on grounds of ‘Common Decency’. (They fear that the play will be a bad influence on the younger generation who might also try and sell their souls to the devil).
