    Entertaining and inspirational

    by Kimagain on 4/11/24BJCC Concert Hall - Birmingham

    Somehow, the scenes and acting kept me engaged the entire 90 min. I expected an academic lecture but got a real man’s pov on life and loving Jesus. Bravo!

    Great Performance

    by KNic on 4/11/24BJCC Concert Hall - Birmingham

    It's always very impressive when a single actor and a single stage set can hold your undivided attention for 90 minutes. That's exactly what Max McLean did as he sat and walked around the stage. His performance as C. S. Lewis was compelling and brilliant.

    Interesting event

    by Yvonne on 4/10/24BJCC Concert Hall - Birmingham

    I enjoyed it! I thought that it was supposed to be a longer time than 1 hour 30 minutes. Overall, it was pretty good!

    This performance by Max McLean during "Further Up and Further In"was exceptional!! By far one if the best and most thought provoking performance I've been to in a long time! I would highly recommend anyone to attend this or any additional shows by this group!

    Phenomenal One Man Show

    by BDbee on 4/10/24BJCC Concert Hall - Birmingham

    Truly impressive for one man to portray Lewis in his own words for 90 mins. Really enjoyed the after show talk with the actor. That was an unexpected bonus.

    Chocked full of great scripture based ways to share faith

    by K.O. on 4/10/24BJCC Concert Hall - Birmingham

    I wish I could have been able to film this production! There was so much great content on how to share the Gospel I couldn't remember it all. Great ideas on how to kindly share our faith. Glad to hear they will be providing the script in the future so I can review it more thoroughly. The place was packed!!

    Great experience!

    by Chip on 4/10/24BJCC Concert Hall - Birmingham

    This is a magnificent performance from Max McLean as C S Lewis, really enjoyed the way he weaved the words of Lewis into a script. If you’ve always loved/admired the works of Lewis, don’t miss this if you have a chance to see it!

    Further Up & Further In Play Review

    by Captain Dave on 4/10/24BJCC Concert Hall - Birmingham

    My wife & any 2 of our college age grandsons attended the play Sunday April 7th. We made an afternoon of it, having dinner first & then attending the play. The entire production was well done. We all enjoyed the humor & thought provoking wisdom of C.S. Lewis. His opinions are spot on even today, & timeless. I would recommend that every young person possible see this.... it's a great counter-balance to what is blindly presented as "truth"today.

    Wonderful afternoon with CS Lewis

    by Mary Ann on 3/6/24Martin Marietta Center for the Performing Arts - Raleigh

    The humor mixed with Christian teachings and so many intellectual opinions of Lewis, that I needed more time to absorb it all. Further Up & Further In was a masterful production and I was glad that we stayed for the discussion time afterwards.

    great show!

    by TheLands on 3/6/24Martin Marietta Center for the Performing Arts - Raleigh

    We enjoyed seeing Max McLean as C.S. Lewis last Sunday. Mr. McLean has has a wonderfully beautiful voice and it was a pleasure just to hear him talk. On top of that the stage set and lighting added to the experience. But best of all was the C.S. Lewis story. I have read several of the Lewis books, both fiction and theological and saw the film, The Most Reluctant Convert. This stage presentation, Further Up & Further In, was a great addition to understanding Mr. Lewis' story and maybe a deeper understanding of his books. Mr McLean came back to the stage after the performance and talked a little about the play and then answered some questions from the audience. It was a great experience!

    Inspiring storytelling

    by Dee B on 3/5/24Martin Marietta Center for the Performing Arts - Raleigh

    I thoroughly enjoyed this presentation of CS Lewis and various aspects of his theology. It felt like we were interacting with him as he shared different experiences and stories. After watching it, I wanted to reread some of his books and read the ones I haven’t read already. The show was inspiring, challenging and entertaining.

    Buckle up, You're In For A Ride

    by Jared on 3/5/24Martin Marietta Center for the Performing Arts - Raleigh

    A phenomenal play and a wonderful look into the genius mind of CS Lewis. There is SO much to unpack with this one that the provided study guide and transcript is a welcome addition. FPA has continued its trend of great, thought provoking plays that both entertain, but touch something of some depth.

    Excellent play with outstanding acting

    by Richard on 3/5/24Martin Marietta Center for the Performing Arts - Raleigh

    The script was well done and expertly weaved in C.S. Lewis's writings. The intelligent and thought provoking material was sublimely conveyed by Max Mclean to the audience. The set and background screen added to the experience.
