(mostly) TRUE THINGS is a compelling evening of true stories - with a twist - told by a brilliant line-up of storytellers who tell a story about a true experience from their own life, on the theme of the night.
There is a game in the show as well. Some of the stories include subtle little lies. The audience gets to question the storytellers, who do not have to answer honestly, just to make the game even more fun, and then votes for the person they think told it with no lies at all. There are prizes involved, if you can believe that.
