SUMMARY:The Lifespan of A Fact at TimeLine Theatre Company
DESCRIPTION:A comedic showdown between truth and fact set in the world of non-fiction publishing. \nJIM FINGAL IS AN EAGER YOUNG INTERN at a high-profile magazine hoping to impress his demanding editor-in-chief\, Emily Penrose. When assigned the job of fact-checking legendary writer John D’Agata’s essay about the city of Las Vegas\, Jim discovers a huge problem: many of the essay’s details were made up. As the publication deadline looms\, a battle between truth and fact ensues in a gripping and fast-paced comedic showdown. \nDrawing from true events surrounding real-life Jim Fingal’s fact-checking of the John D’Agata essay “What Happens There\,” The Lifespan of a Fact has been praised as “a smart and engaging exploration of the nature of truth and the role of the media in society\,” (Chicago Tribune) and “a tightly written and expertly crafted play that keeps the audience riveted from start to finish” (The New York Times). The book on which the play is based\, The Lifespan of a Fact\, received critical attention from national media including NPR\, The New York Times\, and The Los Angeles Times. It was subsequently named a “Top 10 Most Crucial Book” by the editors of Slate\, a “Best Book of the Year” by The Huffington Post\, and an Editor’s Choice by The New York Times Book Review. The stage adaptation opened on Broadway in 2018\, starring Daniel Radcliffe\, Bobby Cannavale\, and Cherry Jones. \nAccessibility: open captions \nhttps://timelinetheatre.com/events/lifespan/ \nThe Lifespan of a Fact runs November 9 – December 23\, 2023 (previews 11/1 – 11/8) at TimeLine Theatre\, 615 W. Wellington Ave.
