italytheater presents 'Born Liars', a Romantic Comedy, May 27 - June 14
Do liars always win? Can you stand by the truth, even when it goes against your interests?
These are the pressing questions of ‘Born Liars,’ the first show produced by italytheater. ‘Born Liars’ is an original and irresistible romantic comedy, which draws on the Neapolitan tradition. It will be on air from May 27th to June 14th 2014 at the June Havoc Theatre in New York City, in mid-town Manhattan.
30% OFF#promo code 'Born' here.
'Born Liars’ delivers a universal message. Truth is as fragile as a bud: it needs care and protection to turn into a beautiful flower. On the contrary, lies are exactly like hurricanes that grow relentlessly to devastate everything on their paths. And, we are the creators of our miseries when truth is neglected and shortcuts accepted to ease our way through the obstacles of life. Lies are egoistical creations, whose effects are unfortunately social, exponentially painful and always dreary. It takes tremendous ethical discipline to accept what’s real, and work hard towards success and happiness.
