The Truth

The Truth at Apollo Theatre

Why see The Truth?

And Nothing But The Truth!

The Apollo Theatre presents the highly anticipated return of Oscar-winning writer Florian Zeller's The Truth, an Olivier-nominated must-see comedy hit from one of the most celebrated playwrights working today, for a limited 14-week season. After the success of The Father, a touching portrait of life between a daughter and her ailing father, The Truth takes a lighter tone, as a witty farce of adultery and friendship, directed by Lindsay Posner.

With an all-star cast, including Tony Award-nominated Stephen Mangan, Ardal O'Hanlon (Father Ted, My Hero), Sarah Hadland (Miranda, The Job Lot), and double Olivier Award-winner Janie Dee.

So What Is The Truth?

Concerning morally fuzzy (and married) businessman Michel and his affair with doctor Alice, who is also similarly attached, The Truth examines the consequences of deceit, pushing Michel to the breaking point as he tries to maintain a happy facade and an explosive affair. But he may have less cause to worry, as it becomes increasingly obvious that his wife may also have taken a lover - one rather too close to home for his liking...
