SUMMARY: Emily and Joanne are spending a quiet evening together, drinking and playing poker, using the contents of their pockets as betting chips. Joanne suggests a new game: "Liar" - the players take turns providing two true facts and one lie. Emily can't seem to figure out when Joanne is lying and when she's telling the truth. Joanne can read Emily like a book, since, in Joanne's words, Emily "tips her hand." A harmless game soon turns into a series of surprising revelations. CAST: 2 Women. LEGNTH: 10-Minute. PAGES: 10. PRODUCTION HISTORY: "Closets are for Clothes" - Penny Dreadful Players, February 2008. This play is also available as part of the Heartland's Rejects Collection, six ten-minute plays for $10. EMILY Why are you so good at this? JOANNE Because I can read people. I was briefly a psychology major. EMILY Is... is that one of the three? I mean - JOANNE No, I was just making conversation. But you're catching on. Ready? EMILY Go. JOANNE For most of the first night I met you, I thought your name was Brooke. I worked for Best Buy for almost a month one summer. And... I've never had more than a thousand dollars in my checking account, in my entire life. EMILY I'd be surprised you never mentioned it before now... Of course, you're really not that forthcoming. JOANNE Not traditionally. EMILY How is it that we've known each other for more than a year, and I know so little about you? JOANNE You know more about me, after knowing me for a year, than some people know after ten. Also, please consider joining our fan club.
