Laughed So Hard I Cried

I had the pleasure of volunteering at the venue where Story Story Lie was performed, which meant I got to catch the show multiple times. Most Fringe shows are great when you get the chance to see them once. This one was genuinely entertaining every single time.

The concept is brilliant and, because each round features different storytellers, every show feels fresh. Even after seeing it multiple times, I never felt like I was watching the same performance twice.

Jo is a fantastic host. She keeps the energy high and the audience invested from start to finish, and I loved the interactive voting system. Nothing humbles you quite like confidently picking the liar multiple times and being completely wrong. Apparently, I am absolutely terrible at figuring out who the liar is, but that's all part of the fun.

Funny, clever, engaging, and surprisingly addictive. I saw it multiple times and would happily see it multiple more. Highly recommend.
