trueLIES on Jan. 26

TT_TrueliestrueLIES 
Presented by trueTHEATRE
Jan. 26
Over-the-Rhine

It was said that George Washington could not tell a lie and Abraham Lincoln was known as “Honest Abe”.  The past X-number of decades, however, have taught us that honesty is not necessarily a pre-requisite for the job anymore, so who knows?  …we might have a future president on our stage for this show where lies spin out of control and make things worse or, seemingly make them better.  But whatever you do, please don’t condemn our storytellers.  What is a lie and what is truth is not always so easy to discern.

The mission of True Theatre is to bring together a wide variety of people to share stories in an effort to create community, encourage discussion, and remind everyone that ALL of us have stories to tell with unique insights and broad appeal.

There’s a million-dollars in it for one lucky winner!

OK, that’s a LIE. In fact, True Theatre is looking for people who’ve lied, been lied to, or have been affected by lies for their January 26 show, trueLIES.

If you have a story you’d like to submit for consideration, they’d love to meet with you on Saturday, December 6.
For more information (time, location, what to prepare), write them at stories@truetheatre.com or visit http://truetheatre.com/contact.html.

Hear the hilarious and heart-warming stories of a woman who had to prepare herself (and her hair) for a trip to Iran, a barber’s son who finds a window into his father’s heart, a Disney-fanatic who gets a behind-the-scenes look at his favorite park (hint: be careful what you wish for), a grandma’s-boy in search of self, and a woman intent on saving a buck, no matter how much it hurts! You’ll love and laugh until your hair falls out at trueHAIR! …but remember, buy your tickets now because: HAIR TODAY, GONE TOMORROW!

Cincinnati’s True Theatre, approaching its fifth season, continues to sell out every one of their one-night-only shows, advertising only “true stories told by real people” and a theme. Each of their shows (including trueFEAR, trueMOM, trueOOPS!, and trueLOVE) have drawn storytellers from all walks of life.

  • Kevin Thornton (“Bryyann Loves You”/”Kevy Kev’s Stand-Up Extravaganza”)
  • Tanya O’Debra (“The Ultimate Stimulus”)
  • Eriv Vosmeier (Co-anchor of the Channel Fringe Hard-Hitting Action News Update and Producing Artistic Director of the Cincinnati Fringe Festival!)

Each storyteller will be sharing true, personal stories that will give you that behind-the-scenes look at life in-and-around the theatre that will make you laugh, cry, and shake your head*. Don’t miss the chance to make your Fringe experience complete with this ONE NIGHT ONLY show! (*Laughing, crying, and head-shaking guaranteed).

War may be hell, but love can be worse! …and the SEARCH for love…? Well, let’s just say you’ll be glad the stories you’ll hear on Monday, April 14th, didn’t happen to YOU!
