‍With the rise of social media, partisan propaganda, and conspiracy theorists in the halls of government, it is little wonder that some have dubbed this the "post-truth" era. This new piece examines what it means to believe in something, in someone, in a world of Truth & Lies.‍

This collection of 3 short plays and a complimentary VR narrative has been written by some of the brightest stars of the Canadian playwrighting scene. See the familiar like never before as you journey through four interwoven stories based on Shakespeare's immortal tale of deceit and trust, Othello.

‍The experience takes place in the Rehearsal Hall of the Vancouver Opera providing a gilded backdrop to an evening of gilded words. All pieces will use the same 4 actors and creative team to ensure a captivating and fully realized vision.
