Story Story Lie

Two Truths and Triumph

Story Story Lie is a comedic production where three Fringe performers take the stage, and try to trick the audience into believing their story is true. The three contestants change every show so you never know which Fringe performer is going to take the stage.

Jo Dworschak directed and hosted the show, her enthusiastic personality started the show off excellently. All throughout the show she provided comedic commentary that elevated the humor of the show. Her ability to convey real emotions on stage made the audience even more intrigued as to which story was false.

The contestants Bil Lepp, Keith Brown, and Willow Rosenberg provided the audience with comedy gold, their amazing ability to answer questions on the fly was remarkable for the true and the false stories. Each story was unique, and beautifully articulated. The contestants each had their own creative story to tell the audience, some stranger than others.

The audience was able to be a part of the show by providing the contestants with questions about their story throughout the show. At the end of the show the audience was able to partake in a vote as to who they thought was lying.

This interactive experience was extremely well done and stunningly comical. If you enjoy hilarious stories, a game show experience, and an interactive encounter this is the show for you. The enthusiastic host and contestants provided a stimulating show.

In Story, Story, Lie, three accomplished Fringe performers will have you guessing which one is lying as they regale you with stories that will test your grasp of reality.

Saturday afternoon's audience was really put to the test. Was the liar the lesbian who flirted her way out of a trespassing ticket while trying to paint a rainbow on the roof of a campus building? The West Virginia child who spent the better part of a year trying to figure out if his grosspapa was scheming to kill one of Santa's reindeer? Or perhaps it was the magician whose sleight of hand didn't get him the girl, but appeased a police officer instead.

If you need more information to make up your mind, you're invited to grill each performer by asking questions to trip up the most seasoned of liars, and even vote on who you think it is.

The one thing I can guarantee is that this glowing review isn't a lie. Each show promises a different cast that has been hand-picked for their poker faces and storytelling abilities, so repeat visitors will never see the same show twice! Think you have what it takes to sniff out a lie? Go see this show before it sells out and see for yourself!
