Award-winning actor Max McLean’s tour de force performance captures C.S. Lewis’ magnetic personality, astonishing eloquence and laugh-out-loud 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 dazzling, multimedia theatrical event explores:
- Why the BBC gave him a huge audience to deliver wartime talks that would become Mere Christianity.
- How Hitler influenced the writing of The Screwtape Letters.
- How his profound insights on the divinity of Christ, prayer, heaven and the Second Coming of Christ influenced The Chronicles of Narnia.
Don’t miss this mesmerizing, one-of-a-kind stage experience that promises to take you further up and further in the heart and mind of C.S. Lewis.
The performance is followed by a post-show discussion with Max McLean.
