"Much of it is Lewis' own writing and you can't go wrong with that," Gregory said. He added Lewis wrote in a variety of genres throughout his life.
The show, Gregory said, also "delves into Lewis' personal life." It allows people to get a better understanding of "why Lewis wrote what he did,"Gregory said.
Provision Theater Company is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year. Gregory said the company's mission is to produce works of "hope, reconciliation and redemption."
Theater fans will have the opportunity to catch one of three performances in Munster. The show will be presented at 2 and 7:30 p.m. Feb. 17 and 3 p.m. Feb. 18.
The production mixes Lewis' literature and conversations with the audience to present a show which offers a look at the author who wrote "The Chronicles of Narnia" and "The Screwtape Letters."
