The Great Divorce - DEVI Production 2021

Written in 1946, the storyline follows a narrator on his bus ride from 'The Grey Town' to Heaven, where he meets a series of interesting characters and personalities on his journey who are muddling their way through the difficulties and challenges of human nature. Riddled with allusions and references, C.S. Lewis' novel takes us on a journey of collective discovery of shared human nature, which, from paper to stage, is amplified tremendously. The play itself is a celebration of overcoming difficulty, which we send as a very small but nonetheless tremendously important message of hope during these difficult and fear-filled times. "It’s very surprising how these seers have seen the future. Like, as you know, C. S. Lewis is there, and also, we have got William Blake, so many others. "[Shri Mataji 1994-0322] "You too had great poets here, there is Lewis, then we have William Blake. ... But they had to write it in this poetry because if they were saying something, they would have been murdered or killed, I don’t know what would have happened. So, they wrote it in poetry when people couldn’t understand much. They have [paved the] way for us. They have created this path. For them, the greatest thing is that it is working out because they are all together. "[Shri Mataji 1996-0628]
