The Truth
The Truth is a wickedly entertaining comedy where trust is fragile, loyalty is negotiable, and everyone has something to hide. This star-driven revival of the Olivier-nominated play peels back the lies we tell the people we love, and the ones we tell ourselves... Gripping, surprising and laugh-out-loud funny, The Truth is a night at the theatre you won't want to miss.

Fun, intelligent and worth seeing I wasn’t sure what to expect as I’d only seen Stephen and Sarah promoting it but so glad I booked. The play was well written, well cast, well acted and above all funny! I loved the format of no interval and an early end. It seemed to help the narrative develop without trying to second guess anything. I would highly recommend you see it 🤗

The Trith The show would have been much better if only they would’ve taken care of the sound system. We were sitting in the balcony on the last seat and for the first two episodes we could barely hear what was being said.. you truly need to install speakers in the balcony so that whilst people cannot see the stage in full because of the bars which are right in the eye of the stage at least one can hear the sound of what is being said. Otherwise it was good.

Hilarious show with amazing acting We literally laughed from beginning to end. Amazing acting and such a lot of dialect to remember. Fantastic show.

Good, old-fashioned farce Great cast. Legroom in stalls was better than expected. Drinks expensive.

Great laugh The show was brilliant, great actors and story lines throughout. Sat in the grand circle, had to lean forward at some points so better seats would be worth the money.

The truth about The Truth Interesting take on morals of modern life and perceptions.Simply presented and lacked a bit of depth

We love Stephen Mangan Very well written and well observed character’s!
Set was well managed
Story kept me interested and a few laugh out loud moments!
My only criticism would be that the ending felt like it was not completely resolved and so left me wanting more of a kaboom !!
Otherwise really really enjoyed everyone in the show !!

A fine French farce. This was a witty, wordy and well acted play that kept the audience guessing. The standing ovation at the end was well deserved.
Patrick, 26 Jun 2026
Witty and Clever Storyline with plenty of twists. Loved this play - it was very entertaining with lots of funny moments and clever twists in the storyline.
Melissa, 20 Jun 2026
So funny and so clever! Stephen Mangan's character was truly exceptional. Laughed from beginning to end.
Caroline, 20 Jun 2026
A laugh from beginning to end This is a very funny show, cleverly written with lots of surprises. Although it tackles a tricky subject it is a laugh from beginning to end. Stephen Mangan is superb in the leading role.and what a delight it is to see the versatile and hugely talented Janie Dee back in the West End.
