Brian and Alice are an average suburban couple.
 
Brian works nine-to-five.
Alice works nine-to-five.
Brian eats dry toast for breakfast.
Alice prefers eggs.
Brian builds forts with blankets in his spare time.
Alice volunteers with dolphins.
Brian sees two children watching him whenever he tries to have sex.
Alice is getting just a little frustrated...

Three projection screens. Two wicked children. A man. A woman. Another woman. Featuring knives, pirate costumes, vegetarian lasagne and far too many overactive libidos, Lies & Other Stories Before Bed is an uproarious, risky and rousing black comedy about the many imperfect moments in life.
 
Brian wants to please Alice, but the parasitic, imaginary children he’s hallucinating are not helping. A boy obsessed with self-destruction and a girl obsessed with white picket fences; together they keep interrupting Brian and Alice’s private moments with their creepy conduct.
 
With Brian wrestling to keep the children a secret, how will he retain Alice’s affections when the seductive Marta strolls onto the scene?

Subversive Arts presents a thrilling threesome of live performance, film and animation in one titillating tale…
 
Starring: Nick Zwart, Mel Shaw, Jeremy Keene, Katrina Fleming, Sara Velásquez, and Stuart Moore
