Review Roundup: Jesse Tyler Ferguson in TRU
by Aliya Al-Hassan - Sep 28, 2026
Directed by the award-winning Rob Ashford, Tru is now open at the Menier Chocolate Factory, following the production’s New York run earlier this year. It's December 1975 and Truman Capote is alone in his New York apartment, reeling from a crisis that cost him friendship of the elite social circle he adored. Drawn entirely from Capote’s own words, this funny and heartbreaking play is an unflinching portrait of an artist at his breaking point, confronting the consequences of his most scandalous work.

Review: TRU, Starring Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Menier Chocolate Factory
by Clementine Scott - Sep 27, 2026
In 1975, Breakfast at Tiffany’s author Truman Capote became a social pariah overnight, after his public betrayal of the group of New York socialites known as the “Swans”. Tru, Jay Presson Allen’s 1989 dramatisation of the incident, locks us in the New Journalism pioneer’s living room in the days following, and doesn’t let us leave.
