What to Watch For:

• Samantha Womack plays the White Witch in The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe play.
• The Chronicles of Narnia series includes seven legendary books, but it wasn't the only magical realm created during the 1940s. J.R.R. Tolkien created The Lord of the Rings trilogy at the same time. In fact, the two men were friends and often met to work together in an informal writer's group near Oxford.
• It took C.S. Lewis nearly ten years to write The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, from 1939-1949. The remaining six books of the series were completed and published in the subsequent seven years.
• Where did C.S. Lewis seek inspiration for the titular parts of the story? The Lion character was a late addition to the plot of the story, the Witch is based on a Hans Christian Andersen story, The Snow Queen, and the Wardrobe may have been inspired by a piece of Lewis's furniture in his countryside home.
