“I leave it to my audience: If I had two faces, would I be wearing this one?”

September 25: Perfect Liars Club
Four storytellers. Four stories. Three are true. One is a lie. Can you spot the liar? Welcome to Perfect Liars Club—a night of hilarious storytelling, bold lies, and audience sleuthing. At each show, four people take the stage to tell wildly entertaining, hard-to-believe stories. Three are true. One is complete fiction. When the storytelling ends, the interrogation begins: the audience cross-examines the performers, pokes holes in their logic, and hunts for clues. Everyone votes for who they think the liar is—and then braces for the shocking reveal. Since 2013, Perfect Liars Club has outwitted DC audiences, confounded skeptics, exposed overconfidence, and gleefully fooled the city’s know-it-alls. It’s smart, funny, and trickier than it sounds. You’ll leave entertained, suspicious, and probably a little bit humbled. Think you can spot the liar? Come prove it. Bragging rights are on the line.
October 15: Athleticism
The October show celebrates Lincoln’s famed athleticism – he’s in the wrestling hall of fame! – with a lineup of comedians who have also been athletes…
November 12: Funny Lawyers
Lawyers are used to being the butt of bad jokes, but can they be the teller of good jokes as well? Let’s find out on November 15 as we hear from comedians Esquire in our final comedy night of the season.
