Polygraph is a multi-disciplinary play about 3 women up against the odds, the odds in this case being men. An accomplished A-list actor and an emerging pop star are both the subjects of a lie detector interview, each hiding a dark secret. Flipping between the roles of interviewer and interviewee we see how each character leads and responds, creating a delicate dance that slowly reveals the truth behind both of these characters.
What audiences are saying about this multi-award nominated show:
“Polygraph is a potent example of the power of live theatre and dance. See it with a friend. Mine and I needed to talk afterwards”
“This was such a gripping story, with such eerie charm in some ways and very real terror in others.”
“This play left me with the kind of bittersweet pit in my stomach that I think we all need to remember.”
“This is an important piece of theatre.”
