  The Liar at Park Square Theatre

The Liar

Park Square Theatre
20 W 7th Pl St. Paul

Based on a classic seventeenth-century play, Ives's adaptation is a mischievous, joyous and hilarious send-up of prevarication and pursuit, combining verbal gymnastics with sidesplitting physical comedy. Of the play, NPR said, "...the rat-a-tat of rapid-fire quips is nearly continually uproarious as reupholstered for modern ears and sensibilities."

Thru - Oct 2, 2016



Price: $27-$60

Box Office: 651-291-7005

  The Liar Reviews

Twin Cities Pioneer Press - Recommended

"...The carbonation level may not always be optimum, but it’s no fib to say that Park Square’s dizzy, fizzy staging of “The Liar” is a fine way to say goodbye to the carefree days of summer."

How Was The Show - Highly Recommended

"...But there is not a weak link throughout, and Scholz-Carlson’s direction wisely gives each performer space to improvise and roam, trusting in their understanding of comedic timing to maintain the show’s energy. It is something special to see great comedic performers enjoying their work; fluidly feeding off each other’s cues and milking bits while emanating that they are having a lot of fun in the process. While dramatic performances can certainly be rewarding for performers, there is never a feeling those on stage will have to fight back a sincere grin. And that feeling can make for a fun, communal ride."

Talkin Broadway - Highly Recommended

"....Director Doug Scholz-Carlson has staged The Liar's Minnesota premiere at Park Square Theatre with the breathless physical pace typical of comedies at the Great River Shakespeare Festival, where Scholz-Carlson is Artistic Director. The result is a constantly engaging show with abundant wit that elicits continuous hearty laughter."
