With a masterclass in performance on full display in this grippingly emotional piece, Face Divided unravels the tale of two lovers at odds within their own internal worlds, ultimately finding faith in the aftermath of heartbreak and betrayal. Deborah Baum and Nathan Melsheimer showcased incredible chemistry, and I was on the edge of my seat the entire time, not sure where each turn was leading. Fantastic work!...

Deborah Baum delivers a raw, unflinching performance in Face Divided, a one-act that grabs you by the throat and doesn’t let go. The writing is intense, the situation heartbreaking, and Deborah brings a deep emotional truth to every beat. She’s matched by a strong cast that brings just as much urgency and weight to the story—the tension between them feels lived-in and real. It’s not an easy watch, but it’s a powerful one. Honest, human, and haunting....
