The Lifespan of a Fact at Armour Street Theatre

Why let the truth get in the way of a good story? That is a question THE LIFESPAN OF A FACT explores when Davidson Community Players presents this contemporary, fast-paced comedy April 9 through April 26, 2026, at the Armour Street Theatre.

Directed by Frannie Williams, the play explores the ethics of journalism and the fine line between fact and interpretation as it follows a young Harvard-educated fact checker who clashes with a celebrated writer over an essay that could save a struggling New York magazine. As their battle over details intensifies, the debate becomes both hilarious and thought-provoking, a dynamic that feels especially relevant in today’s social media-driven culture.

Evening performances begin at 7:30 pm, with Sunday matinees at 2:00 pm. Recommended ages 15 and up.
