ISBN: 978-0-573-69722-7 Lisa Soland Dramatic Comedy 6m, 5f
Truth Be Told is a full-length play that consists of eleven, one-person stories shared by a variety of personalities, all focused on getting at the truth. "Lisa Soland's characters are quirky, heartbreaking and enchanting. In these short, expertly-tuned monologues, we understand the entire life of the characters by focusing in on events that define their lives. The characters stay with us because there are pieces of them in us all." —Lloyd Noonan, Dramatic Writing Editor, Quay Journal. "An extraordinary, well-balanced and perfect evening of theatre – so clever, so witty, so insightful and so moving."" —Kieron Barry, Metro Pulse. "Having incarnated a few of Ms. Soland's characters, I am always struck by her profoundly unique voice that somehow finds a way to touch us all. Disarmingly, her characters in Truth Be Told engage the audience like candy to a child, until she invites us to grow up by exposing old wounds and adding salt where we need to heal."" —John D'Aquino, Actor/Writer.
