Tom Moran is a Big Fat Filthy Disgusting Liar
Scroll ↓
Have you ever told a lie? How bad was it? And how far would you go to keep it a secret?
Tom is a charismatic people-pleaser, an expert in empathy, but someone who struggles with the truth. The winners of Fishamble’s New Writing Award at Dublin Fringe, join Tom in this hilarious but completely true show as he seeks to exorcise ghosts, confess his deepest darkest secrets and somehow un-f*ck his future, as Tom begs the question, if I never lied again and was just myself, would any of loved ones still love me?
