SUMMARY:Gems at the J | The Lifespan of a Fact Play
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we head to Act II Playhouse for performance of The Lifespan of a Fact. A young Harvard grad is hired to fact check a celebrated author’s essay for a struggling New York magazine and sparks fly. Their clash over truth\, art\, and the meaning of accuracy quickly turns into a witty\, fast-paced\, and fiercely intelligent battle. Funny\, provocative\, and uncannily timely\, The Lifespan of a Fact asks what matters more: the story or the facts\, and whether a great work of art can survive scrutiny. A sharp\, laugh-out-loud exploration of truth\, trust\, and the art of getting it right. Lunch\, ticket and transportation from/to the JCC included. \n
