C.S. Lewis’s brilliant novel, “The Screwtape Letters,” has been adapted for the stage into a production that is “just about everything you want in a night at the theater,” says Daniel Kelly at NYTheatre.com. The play, like the novel, explores spiritual warfare from a demon’s point of view. Set in an office in hell, it follows a senior devil and his secretary as they train an apprentice demon how to “undermine faith and prevent the formation of virtues” in a young man who has just converted to Christianity. This play has been seen in New York, Chicago and Washington, D.C., and has now made its way here. —Laura Morton
