Feeling broke and exhausted...I know, make a deal with the devil, what could possibly go wrong?

There are so many versions of this story, which is weird because it's so horrible. But is has some really poetic images too and a lovely happy ending to redeem it. I saw a theatrical version of this a few years back called 'The Wild Bride', by Knee High Theatre. I LOVEd it. http://www.kneehigh.co.uk/show/the-wild-bride.php

I didn't use as many sound effects for this one because I didn't think it needed them as much, but I did improvise some little song bits for the middle. I hope you like it :)
