Synopsis: Herein Lies the Truth is a hilarious autobiographical play that will make you question what you think you know – and how preconceived notions about disability can blur the truth. Who are stories for? Are they for the listener – or for the person sharing their truth? A world premiere from solo writer-performer Aaron Pang, a current MFA candidate at the Iowa Nonfiction Writers Workshop whose work has been performed at The Moth.
Content warning: Herein Lies the Truth is appropriate for adults and older teenage audiences. Contains adult language, mature subject matter, and descriptions of sexual situations.
UPDATED HEALTH & SAFETY POLICY
Masks are optional at all performances.
