It featured scenes with real life actors, animation, and surreal sets and backgrounds.^[1]

Premise

The story retells the tale of Faust, making a deal with the devil, in a Rock Musical form. There is little spoken dialogue in the film as the majority of the show is sung. Which uses characteristics of operatic recitative, only being sung in Rock form, similar to musicals such as Rent and Bare.^[2]

Availability

Temptation never saw the light of day in public release, nor physical media after premiering only once in 2004 at the New York Musical Festival.^[3]
