'The Life and Death of Doctor Faustus Made into a Farce' is a bawdy, comedy of manners play written by William Mountfort. As one can guess, it's a parody of sorts of the play Doctor Faustus by Christopher Marlowe. The difference between the two works is best summed up in the following: "Marlowe's tragedy has two distinct lines: the mighty verse which makes up the tragedy of an heroic overreacher, and a comic line of farcical lazzi. Mountfort has trimmed away the poetry of Marlowe and, for the most part, retained the farcical elements of the earlier play."
