An American theatre company is bringing C.S. Lewis’s The Screwtape Letters to stages across the United States.
Fellowship for Performing Arts (FPA), based in New York City, is a not-for-profit production company creating theatre and film from a Christian worldview. Its founder, Max McLean – famous for depicting Lewis in biopic The Reluctant Convert (2021) – spoke of his personal connection with the book: “I was an adult convert to Christianity and, after reading the New Testament, someone gave me a couple of Lewis’s books. The one that really hit me was The Screwtape Letters.
