Evocative

THE LIFESPAN OF A FACT

Directed by Susan Claassen with

and Emily Gates

 

THE LIFESPAN OF A FACT is a critically acclaimed

2018 Broadway play based on the true(ish)

book by John D'Agata and Jim Fingal.

 

 

This fast-paced story explodes with blistering comedy and timely relevance. Facts become blurry when they're twisted into fiction in the high-stakes world of publishing. The demanding editor-in-chief of a high-end magazine, hires a determined millennial fact-checker to work on a groundbreaking essay written by the famous author. 

 

 

 

 

The deadline is tight, the essay is dense, and everyone must make a good faith effort in telling the story honestly.

This is the ultimate showdown of fact versus fiction.

 

 

 

 

"I'm not interested in accuracy. I'm interested in truth!"

- John D'Agata

Join Tucson icon,  Ann Brown

for a post-show discussion on

September 8

following the 7:30 PM performance of

THE LIFESPAN OF A FACT!

 

Ann Brown has been focused on facts since working on her high school newspaper and yearbook. She  wrote for and edited most sections of the Arizona Daily Star. She also wrote and edited communication vehicles and magazines for chambers of commerce in Tucson, San Francisco, and San Antonio, Texas. Retired from the Star in 2017, she remains focused on facts as a freelance writer and editor. She keeps in mind the old newspaper adage:

"If your mom says she loves you, check it out."
