Bilingual Weekly

MODESTO, CA –  David Payne’s esteemed one-man show, “An Evening with C.S. Lewis,” will come to the Gallo Center for the Arts on Friday, April 29 at 7:00 p.m.  Payne has performed for sold-out crowds throughout the U.S. and Europe, delivering a message of encouragement, hope and redemption. 

David Payne, born in London in 1942, has been in the ministry for most of his life.  With a clear focus on youth and family services, he traveled abroad to America and rediscovered the writings C.S. Lewis through the stage. 

            In “An Evening with C.S. Lewis” David Payne portrays the British author in the twilight of his life, as he hosts a group of American writers at his home.  The Gallo says “Payne captures the essence of the man who wrote the epic Narnia Chronicles with laughter and poignancy.”
