    Divisions explores the broken marriage of Pat and Mary and their subsequent struggle to rebuild their lives. Mary attempts to get their marriage annulled by the Catholic Church, a process she discovers is long, arduous and not often fruitful. Pat goes on a spree of emotional turmoil, drink and violence. The play explores divorce, the arguments for it and the objections to it by a very conservative society.
