One of France's hottest playwrights is Florian Zeller, whose work was last seen in Pangdemonium's much lauded production of The Father in 2018. This time, it is Singapore Repertory Theatre which is staging his play titled The Truth, a funny, light farce about two couples hiding their infidelities from each other.
Lim Yu Beng and Neo Swee Lin play middle-aged couple Michel and Laurence who, on the outset, appear perfectly happy. But Michel is sleeping with Alice, the wife of his best friend Paul. And things are about to get hairy for all four of them, as each gets entangled in their own maze of who-told-whom-what.
Variously described by critics as "entertaining" and "unsettling", The Truth has been performed across Europe to great acclaim.
