As the holiday season approaches, theater audiences in St. Louis can look forward to an engaging performance titled “Christmas with C.S. Lewis,” which highlights the renowned British author known for his work in “The Chronicles of Narnia.” This special event presents a collection of Lewis’s reflections on Christmas, enriched with personal anecdotes.
Highlights of the Event
Those interested in attending can take advantage of a significant discount, with tickets available for just $38, down from the regular price of $75.75. The performances are scheduled from November 29 to December 15 at the Westport Playhouse, offering both evening and matinee options for audiences.
Created by David Payne and featuring Gregory Williams Welsch in the role of Lewis, the play explores pivotal moments in the author’s life, particularly his transformative friendship with fellow writer J.R.R. Tolkien. This bond played a crucial role in Lewis’s journey from skepticism to faith in Christianity, a theme central to the unfolding narrative.
Set on Christmas Eve at Lewis’s home near Oxford, the play depicts a visit from a group of American guests who are eager to experience the English holiday spirit. Initially skeptical about the significance of the Christmas story, Lewis undergoes a profound change in viewpoint as a series of remarkable events unfold before him.
All fees and taxes are included in the ticket price, making it a straightforward choice for attendees planning their holiday entertainment.
