I have mentioned the free open source iPhone Wax project several times in the past. What the iPhone wax project allows you to do is automatically bridge Lua and Objective-C allowing you to access anything written in Objective-C using your Lua code automatically.
The project has evolved considerably over time, and many of the resources have become out of date. Recently I came across an excellent, up-to-date tutorials from Alec George using the latest version of Wax and Xcode 4 made for those getting started with iPhone Wax.
You can find the tutorial here:

If you have been looking for a way to program apps in Lua while still having access to all the features available in the iOS SDK then take a look at these tutorials and see if it’s for you.
