On Sunday July 28, 2019, a one-time only performance of “An Evening with C. S. Lewis,” a play by David Payne will be held at Emmanuel Reformed Church, 202 E. Morris Street, Morrison, IL. Starring Philip Crowley, the production begins at 2:00 p.m. Admission is free, but a free-will donation will be collected to benefit the Morrison Ministerial Council.
Actor, Philip Crowley brings you right into the living room of the author who gave us the Chronicles of Narnia. Set in C. S. Lewis’s home near Oxford, England, his guests are treated to an enthralling evening. He recounts the events and people that shaped his life and made him one of the bestselling authors of the 20th century.
In this 90 minute production, viewers will find themselves captivated by a man who, despite becoming a legend in his own lifetime, was most at ease when engaging in exhilarating conversation infused with potent humor.
“An Evening with C. S. Lewis” sees Lewis at his anecdotal best. He talks about life, friends, family, and the American woman who turned his life upside down and brought unexpected romance into his middle-aged bachelor’s life.
Phil Crowley is a much sought-after voice actor and may be heard on many commercials and documentary narrations. Most prominently he is the announcer on ABC’s weekly, hit entrepreneurial series, Shark Tank, produced by Mark Burnett.
