C.S. Lewis on Stage: Further Up & Further In

Description

From Fellowship for Performing Arts, the producers of The Screwtape Letters, and starring award-winning actor Max McLean, comes a dazzling yet intimate theatrical experience that will take audiences Further Up & Further In to the heart and mind of C.S. Lewis, the creator of The Chronicles of Narnia.

C.S. Lewis On Stage: Further Up & Further In plays for one weekend only, Saturday, Oct. 31 and Sunday, November 1, at The AT&T Performing Arts Center.

McLean’s tour de force performance captures Lewis’ magnetic personality, astonishing eloquence and self-deprecating wit to create an onstage experience venturing deep into the soul of one of the most influential thinkers of the past century.

Using Lewis’ own words, this multimedia, theatrical event explores:
--Why the BBC gave him a huge audience to deliver wartime talks that would become Mere Christianity.
--How the rise of Hitler influenced the writing of The Screwtape Letters.
--How his profound insights on the divinity of Christ, prayer, heaven and the Second Coming influenced The Chronicles of Narnia.
