From award-winning Western Australian playwright, Damon Lockwood, comes a tale of love gained, love lost, and love thrown around a bit. Nominated Best Play in WA, this comedy gem follows two people inflicted with a truth telling disease, as they meet and fall in love. Lloyd and Belle are the two reluctant protagonists burdened with the disease, vitiositas veritas. Like most relationships, everything seems to be going… sort of well at the start. A hesitant first date, a disappointing initial sexual encounter and an unfortunate meeting with Belle’s parents. Somehow the two lovers navigate these intimate difficulties to look each other in the eye and say, “I love you”. Which, unbeknown to either of them, precipitates the next stage of the disease.
