An Evening With CS Lewis



The year is 1963 and C S Lewis, the famous British author, is in the twilight years of his life. Following a request from his great friend, J.R. R. Tolkien, he has agreed to give an informal talk to a group of American writers who are visiting England.
They have come to Lewis’ home, just outside of Oxford, and are eagerly anticipating hearing the man who has become a legend in his own lifetime.
They are not disappointed. Despite his failing health, Lewis is in great form.
His audience is spellbound as, with a display of oratory and humor that made him one of England’s most famous public speakers, he recounts the significant events and the people that shaped his life.
My husband and I were at the Gallo Center Performance in Modesto, CA ( it was my anniversary gift to him) When we left he said that was one of the best gifts he had ever received.
