"Is the winter getting to you? Are you suffering from the ice-and-snow blues? Fortunately, you can shatter that chilly mood for at least a few hours of laughter and psychic sunshine."—Sheila Abrams NJ ARTS MAVEN
""The Liar" is pure zany fun.... If you are looking for a bright break from the dreary days of winter, look no further, this is a wonderful joyous example of the magic that is live theatre. Laughs are guaranteed."—Rick Busciglio THE EXAMINER
This story of mistaken identity and half-truths has delighted audiences and critics time and again. The Wall Street Journal says, “I laughed so hard that I was sore the next day…By wedding [Ives'] verbal prestidigitation to Corneille's mistaken-identity plot, Mr. Ives has come up with a play in which the laughs flow freely and joyously."
