Max McLean is an American stage actor, writer, producer, and founder of the Fellowship for Performing Arts (FPA), a New York-based company producing theater and film from a Christian worldview. He is renowned for his acclaimed stage adaptations of C.S. Lewis’s works, including The Screwtape Letters, The Great Divorce, and C.S. Lewis Onstage: The Most Reluctant Convert—the last of which he also starred in for the film adaptation. In addition to dramatizing Lewis, McLean has created original plays such as Martin Luther on Trial, performed dramatic presentations of Biblical texts, and narrated multiple versions of The Listener’s Bible, earning four Audie Award nominations and critical praise from national publications. His productions have toured internationally and played to over a million people, frequently reaching university campuses as part of his drive to foster open, civil dialogue on big questions of faith and life. He is the recipient of numerous honors, including the Jeff Award (Chicago theatre’s highest honor) and the 2022 C.S. Lewis Foundation Award for contributions to integrating faith and the arts.

McLean is currently touring his acclaimed stage adaptation of The Screwtape Letters. Tickets and tour dates are available at ScrewtapeOnStage.com.
