A divine revelation on the road to Damascus moves Saul to renounce his former life. He changes his name, converts from Judaism, and devotes himself to preaching the Gospel. Taking the remarkable life and moral teachings of this profound religious thinker, Howard Brenton explores the phenomenon of faith. While offering a secular reading of the story of Christ s resurrection, at the play s heart Paul preaches from his Letter to the Corinthians, the eloquence of which cannot fail to move.
