The Break of Noon at Pasadena Playhouse

Amidst the chaos and horror of the worst office mass shooting event in American history, the tragedy's sole survivor, John Smith, sees the face of God. Smith's modern-day revelation creates a maelstrom of disbelief among everyone he knows as he struggles to lead a better life and hold on to his new-found faith. Called a "nifty coup de théàtre" by The New York Times and "a darkly comic morality tale" by The New York Post in its original 2009 run, The Break of Noon explores our society, the media, religion and gun violence as only Neil LaBute (In the Company of Men, Reasons to Be Pretty) could imagine.
