Screwtape Performance

Selections from the Screwtape Letters

C.S. Lewis' renowned book Screwtape Letters reveals spiritual warfare from a demon’s point of view. The performance features Screwtape, an undersecretary in Hell's sprawling bureaucracy.  He dictates letters to his demon nephew, Wormwood, who has been assigned the task of tempting a single, earthly soul to damnation.  Screwtape offers diabolical advice on the best ways to lead a mortal into self-delusion, surrender, pettiness, vice, and despair.  The language crackles with satirical wit and penetrating insight on the psychology of human failure and unhappiness.
