For those of you in the Philadelphia area, this news is just in from Tony Lawton, who many of you have seen perform The Great Divorce at Oxbridge 2008 and Williams 2006:
The Great Divorce
Limited engagement – back by popular demand!
Based on the novel by C.S. LEWIS
Adapted and Performed by ANTHONY LAWTON
December 26, 2008 – January 4, 2009
Lewis’ own favorite among his works, The Great Divorce is the story of Clive, a hapless professor, and the motley band of malcontents 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
