Coal Creek Theater of Louisville presents
Shadowlands
by William Nicholson
Directed by Dan Schock
Oxford, 1950s. C.S. Lewis is a confirmed bachelor, a beloved professor, and the author of the Narnia books. He lectures on suffering with confident detachment—pain, he explains, is God's way of calling us to something greater. Then an American writer named Joy Gresham shows up. She's blunt, brilliant, and entirely unimpressed by his comfortable certainties. What begins as correspondence becomes friendship. Friendship becomes something more. And when Joy is diagnosed with cancer, everything Lewis thought he understood about faith, love, and loss is put to the test. William Nicholson's Tony-nominated play about the man who wrote about other worlds—and the woman who finally pulled him into this one.
Run Time - 2 hours and 20 minutes, with one 15-minute intermission.
