One Hundred Lies

One Hundred Lies

by Alan Haehnel

In this poignant comedy, teenager Liz Nostrand presents her life as a competition, complete with scoreboard and time clock. The goal of the game: To dramatize, in only 30 minutes, 100 significant lies told by and to Liz.

By the final buzzer, though, we see that the most crucial lies in Liz's life are those she has told herself.

One Hundred Lies brings you in laughing and sends you out thinking.

Praise for One Hundred Lies

Ila Stallings
CAST
The audience response was incredible! Tons of laughter throughout, then tears in the final scenes. This group enjoyed working on this production so much.
Peter Taylor
Holy Redeemer Catholic Jr/Sr High School
It is a powerful play. It demands a lot from the lead character, but if you have a strong female and they are up for the challenge, this play is well worth it.
David Lubin
Seminole Middle School
If you are looking for a one act that is different than the 'norm' this is a good choice.
