Screwtape takes to the stage in the US

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.
