TRUE LOVE LIES by Brad Fraser (West Coast Premiere)

Kane and Carolyn have a loving relationship, successful careers and a happy, normal life with their two children. Life couldn't be more perfect...until David, Kane's ex, comes back to town. As hidden relationships are revealed and the safe veneer of home begins to splinter, this ruthless comedy will leave you laughing...and wondering about your own family secrets.

PLEASE NOTE: This production contains nudity and sexual situations.

Directed by Dave Barton, the play stars Christopher Basile, Anthony Cohen, Rick Kopps, Jill Cary Martin and Sabrina Zathers. TRUE LOVE LIES runs seventeen performances at 204 N.

Originally from Edmonton, Alberta, multiple award-winning Brad Fraser has been writing since the age of 17 and his plays have been seen worldwide and translated into multiple languages. Some of his major plays include WOLFBOY - 1984; POOR SUPER MAN - 1994; MARTIN YESTERDAY - 1997; SNAKE IN FRIDGE 2000; OUTRAGEOUS 2000 (MUSICAL WITH Joey Miller); and COLD MEAT PARTY 2003. His film and television credits include LOVE AND HUMAN REMAINS and SNAKE IN FRIDGE, as well as several seasons with the hit series QUEER AS FOLK.
