The age of McCarthyism, as seen through the eyes of America’s most notorious liar. Starting out a communist in post-war New York, Harvey Matusow turned informer, spent four years mouthing off to anti-red committees, then put the cat among the stoolpigeons by admitting he’d made up almost all of it. What drove him to do these extraordinary things? Was it money? Was it fear? Or was it a simple lust for fame – fame of any kind and at any cost? Winner of the FringeReview Outstanding Theatre Award.   (90 minute show + 10 minute intermission)

“What is unequivocal is the sheer powerful brilliance of Cohen’s script... And then there’s the performance – pitch-perfect, adroit, vivacious and charming.” - Fringe Guru
