Singapore Repertory Theatre

The Lifespan of a Fact

25 Feb - 14 Mar 2020 | KC Arts Centre - Home of SRT


Which is more important?
Poetic Truths or Pure Facts?

Jim Fingal is a fresh-out-of-Harvard fact checker for a prominent but sinking New York magazine. John D’Agata is a talented writer with a transcendent essay about the suicide of a teenage boy—an essay that could save the magazine from collapse. When Jim is assigned to fact check D’Agata’s essay, the two come head to head in a comedic yet gripping battle over facts versus truth.

Featuring Ghafir Akbar (Shakespeare in the Park – Julius Caesar and Guards at the Taj), Janice Koh (Hand to God) and Jamil Schulze. Directed by Daniel Slater (Shakespeare in the Park – Romeo & Juliet).
