The Screwtape Letters at McAninch Arts Center

The Screwtape Letters is a provocative and "wickedly witty" (Wall Street Journal) theatrical adaptation of C.S. Lewis' novel about spiritual warfare from a demon's point of view. Set in a remarkably stylish office in the depths of hell, the drama centers on Screwtape, a senior demon - and Satan's top psychiatrist - who schemes meticulously to capture the soul of an unsuspecting human on Earth. Human notions of morality get turned upside down as unsuspecting mortal souls are enticed to join "Our Father Below." "The Devil has rarely been given his due more perceptively," said The New York Times. See this acclaimed production at the McAninch Arts Center at the College of DuPage.
