Aleister Crowley: A Passion For Evil

Black magician Aleister Crowley faces a stark choice, will he live the rest of his life in obscurity or perform his last great ritual, summoning to the stage the Egyptian god Horus. An unforgettable ritual but one that will cost him his life.

Purple Media present Aleister Crowley: A Passion for Evil, a dark story that explores the life of one of the most controversial men of the twentieth century. John Burns gives a chilling performance as a man driven to despair as greatness slips from his grasp. He explored many religions and eventually found solace in Magick, his own interpretation of the religion of the ancient Egyptians. John Burns is a published poet and stand up comedian whose experiences as a mountaineer inspired his interest in the enigmatic figure of Crowley.
