Noon Divide (Partage de Midi) by Paul Claudel
Storm Theater and Blackfriars Repertory Theatre
Noon Divide, an intense morality/passion play by French poet, dramatist, and diplomat Paul Claudel (1868-1955), is excellent serious theater. Like ancient Greek drama, it deals with what makes people tick, what drives them on, and what propels them to undo themselves.
