Plot Synopsis:
A modern drama about deception and broken trust, labeled by the author as a “comedy of suspicion,” as the story is brought in multiple layers and the audience is repeatedly tricked into believing that the current situation is real. Dietz described the origin of this play as “a scene in which two lovers fail to speak the truth. And, like a lie, the play grew. It began to go to greater and greater lengths to keep its own deceit afloat. It took my sense of structure for a ride and built a web of such complexity that clarity (a/k/a ‘truth’) was rendered virtually impossible.”
