Perfect Liars Club London on March 18th at The Book Club
When the March Perfect Liars Club show sold out a full TWO MONTHS in advance, we knew it was going to be good. And sure enough, the audience came ready to sleuth.
The question was: who was the liar?
The interrogation began and the audience weighed in. Alexis, what exactly does an elephant's skin feel like? Paul, describe the location of the evil altar within the walls. Lizzie, can you name 5 Little Mermaid songs and 5 saints? And finally, one enterprising audience member just 'happened' to have ferrero rocher on him - could Reuben reprise his victory? Reuben begged off the full five ferrero rocher that had won his victory but he agreed to eat one, which he achieved in under 8 seconds. Respect. I think... But at any rate, his victory was short-lived: an audience member's father was a Guinness World Records adjudicator! They had questions and they were technical. Why exactly did Reuben not know adjudicators always wear blue ties? Suspicions were mounting as we approached the vote...
Amazingly the audience was pretty split. Paul was deemed least likely to be lying, followed by Alexis, Lizzie, and finally at most suspicious, Reuben. The drumroll commenced. And then the liar stepped forward. It was Paul!
Only 13 people got it right. The rest of London? Shame on you. Fake news.
Get tix for the next show here.
The question was: who was the liar?
- Was it Alexis who claimed her romantic honeymoon in Laos was nearly ended prematurely on the back of a stampeding elephant?
- Was it Paul who alleged that an archaeological altar of evil in Knole House stopped him from going on an Indiana Jones-style dig by way of a series of unfortunate injuries?
- Was it Lizzie who insisted her love of Ariel-like flowing mermaid hair was what stopped her from becoming a nun?
- Or was it Reuben who alleged that for a short, glorious time he held the Guinness World Record for how many ferrero rocher chocolates could be eaten in one minute?
