The Divide - The Old Vic

In the aftermath of a deadly contagion which has decimated the population, contact between men and women has become fatal.

The adult survivors are now segregated by gender and, physically separated, men wear white as a sign of their purity and women – still deemed infected – are clothed in black as a mark of their sin.
