British actor David Payne has portrayed C.S. Lewis—theologian, legendary author of The Chronicles of Narnia and close friend to J.R.R. Tolkien—over 1,000 times, touring the world with his one-man stage play. In An Evening with C.S. Lewis, set in 1963, Lewis hosts a group of American writers at his home and begins recounting the significant events and people that have shaped his life, offering a fascinating insight into a man whose collected works made him one of the most influential literary giants of his day. Payne stumbled into his role as Lewis when he auditioned for Shadowlands in 1996 and received the lead role; he has since portrayed the famed author in various stage productions. VIP seating ($40) includes a meet-and-greet with Payne. The performance starts at 7 p.m.
