Production History The Great Divorce
Adapted by and starring Anthony Lawton
From the novel by C.S. Lewis December 26 - 30, 2006 Don't miss this special engagement – back by popular demand! Lewis' own favorite among his works, The Great Divorce is the story of Clive, a hapless professor, and the motley band of discontents who join him on a very curious bus ride. Journeying between Hell and Heaven, Clive crosses a surprising, wildly inventive landscape drawn by Lewis' philosophical imagination. Satirical and comic, The Great Divorce is a wondrous ride filled with dazzling insight and language. "Now, this is storytelling. Anthony Lawton holds us rapt...with his masterful performance." –The Philadelphia Inquirer
