The Screwtape Letters is a provocative and wickedly funny theatrical adaptation of C.S. Lewis’ novel about spiritual warfare from a demon’s point of view.
The Wall Street Journal called it “Wickedly Witty! One Hell of a Good Show!” Christianity Today said The Screwtape Letters is a “Profound Experience!” and Newsweek ranked it among the best productions of the year in New York City.
The Screwtape Letters creates a topsy-turvy, morally inverted universe, set in an eerily stylish office in hell, where God is called the “Enemy,” and the devil is referred to as “Our Father Below.” The play follows His Abysmal Sublimity Screwtape and his slavish creature-demon Toadpipe as they train an apprentice demon, Wormwood, on how to ruin the life and damn the soul of an unsuspecting human on earth.
The Screwtape Letters stars Brent Harris as Screwtape (Scar in The Lion King national tour).
The Screwtape Letters run time is 90 minutes with no intermission. It is recommended for ages 13 and older, and children under age 4 are not admitted.
