Direct from a sold-out West End run, this smash-hit comedy is back in London for 12-weeks only from July 2027.
From Oscar-winning writer Florian Zeller, The Truth is a ‘hugely entertaining’ (The Telegraph), Olivier-nominated play, where trust is fragile, loyalty is negotiable, and everyone has something to hide…
This ‘deliciously funny, superbly cast and expertly constructed, 90-minutes of sharp-witted entertainment’ (Smooth Radio) peels back the lies we tell the people we love, and the ones we tell ourselves.
Back by phenomenal demand are Tony Award-nominated Stephen Mangan, alongside comedy icon Ardal O’Hanlon (Father Ted, My Hero), Sarah Hadland (Miranda, The Job Lot), and double Olivier Award-winner Janie Dee.
The Truth is ‘sophisticated fun’ (Time Out), a ’chic, clever comedy’ (Financial Times), an ‘ingenious Rubik’s cube of hilarious deceit’ (Daily Mail), and a night at the theatre you won't want to miss.
Don’t miss The Truth, playing at Theatre Royal Haymarket from July 2027 for 12-weeks only.
