True Love Lies by Brad Fraser
#CanadianPlaywright
True Love Lies is a full-length black comedy by Brad Fraser. A middle-aged couple have a loving relationship, successful careers and a happy, normal life with their two teenage children. Life couldn't be more perfect... until an old flame comes back to town. Hidden relationships are revealed and the safe veneer of home begins to splinter. True Love Lies is a ruthless comedy that will leave you laughing... and wondering about your own family secrets.
Unidentified Human Remains was a huge national and international breakthrough hit for Brad Fraser, and True Love Lies meets up with two of its characters – Kane and David – twenty years later. Kane is now straight, happily married to Carolyn and living in mortgaged suburbia with two rebellious teenagers: outgoing Madison and geeky Royce. The typical nuclear family. But when Madison applies for a job at the new restaurant in town, Kane and Carloyn find that a man they had long forgotten has just re-entered their lives: Kane's ex-lover. Sparking a series of further revelations, the sudden re-appearance of David outs dad to his kids and forces the question, does true love ever die? With the crackle of lightning fast one-liners, acidic exchanges and wickedly witty characters, True Love Lies exposes suppressed emotions and desires in everyone and the family must renegotiate their relationships with each other and, ultimately, redefine their family.
