In a dark corner of Hell's bureaucracy sits mid-level demon Screwtape, scratching out letters to his nephew, Wormwood, filled with advice on how to corrupt a human soul. Gleefully, Screwtape catalogs the list of human frailties upon which Wormwood is to prey – war, lust, debauchery, decadence, and all sorts of wickedness. This rollicking adaptation turns the revered classic into a sumptuous multimedia event with music, dance, and infernal unpredictability.

"Lawton's energetic version succeeds... Clever and insightful!" –Philadelphia City Paper on The Screwtape Letters (2008)
