True Love Lies at The Cultch
September 21 - October 1, 2011
Historic Theatre at The Cultch

Edmonton's internationally notorious playwright, Brad Fraser, is back with an audacious and outrageous new comedy of bad manners. A huge hit in the UK and during its Canadian premiere in Toronto, True Love Lies opens The Cultch's 11/12 season with a searing comedy exposing a modern family and their long-held secrets.

Brad Fraser's Unidentified Human Remains and the True Nature of Love was a huge hit for Touchstone in the early nineties, and True Love Lies meets up with two of its characters – Kane and David – twenty years later. Kane is now straight, married and living in mortgaged suburbia with two kids. David's reappearance outs dad to his kids and forces the question, does true love ever die? With the crackle of lightning fast one-liners, acidic exchanges and wickedly witty characters, this hilarious new play shatters our illusions about the "perfect" Canadian family.

Dark, dangerous and extremely funny, Fraser's explosive new play True Love Lies leaves audiences gasping for more.
