The Great Divorce
Hell resembles nothing so much as a dreary industrial city in the north of England, its denizens free to leave whenever they like – aboard a bus bound for a heaven that’s like nothing you’ve ever imagined. A theologically dazzling journey studded with memorable characters, mind-spinning dialogue, and images of human folly and sublime hope that will forever change the way you see eternity.
GREAT DIVORCE adapted by George Drance & The Magis Theatre from the novel by C.S. Lewis will be at Pacific Theatre from May 20 to June 18. For more info, go to www.pacifictheatre.org
