C.S. Lewis Onstage: Further Up & Further In

Fellowship for Performing Arts presents award-winning actor Max McLean in a dazzling, new theatrical experience that will take you Further Up & Further In the heart and mind of C.S. Lewis.
 
“When Lewis moved from vigorous debunker to believer, it wasn’t obvious he would become the most influential Christian writer of the past hundred years,” said Max, who also adapted the play. “Why did the BBC give Lewis a national audience to deliver unprecedently popular radio talks that would become Mere Christianity? How did Hitler’s devious charm influence the writing of The Screwtape Letters? What made Lewis such an effective apologist/evangelist to skeptics? Was it prayer? His expectation of the second coming? Or was it his deep longing for Heaven that also inspired much of his writing?”

Using Lewis’ own words, Further Up & Further In explores these questions and more through a state-of-the-art theatrical experience of startling imagery, evocative music and Lewis’ amazing storytelling.
