“Ives’s Liar is a treat—and that’s the truth.”
– Entertainment Weekly

Meet our hero, the rapscallion who raises lying to an art form. Buckle up for an evening of razor-sharp modern wordplay and classic Restoration stage combat. Blessed and cursed with an unfailing gift for fabrication, young Dorante comes to Paris looking for a good time and promptly falls in love.

Adapted from Pierre Corneille’s Le Menteur by the incomparable wordsmith David Ives, the play guides us through the maze of his adventures and leads us at a breakneck pace on a wildly witty journey
to the rascal’s happy ending.
