COST:$5
SUMMARY:”Each Liar show features four New York performers telling short, absorbing and funny personal stories. But listen carefully, because only three of these fast talkers are telling the truth. The other is making it all up. After hearing the stories and interrogating the performers, you’ll reason deductively, think analytically and then take a wild guess at who’s lying. If you’re lucky you’ll walk away with an inflated ego and a fashionable “I Can Tell A Lie” t-shirt, amid a bitter chorus of, “Congratulations, Einstein,” from the empty-handed losers.’
THIS WEEK: Mike Daisey, Sara Barron, Lucy Baker and Martin Dockery
