Truth Be Told is a full-length play that consists of eleven,
one-person stories shared by a variety of personalities, all
focused on getting at the truth. "Lisa Soland's characters are
quirky, heartbreaking and enchanting. In these short,
expertly-tuned monologues, we understand the entire life of the
characters by focusing in on events that define their lives. The
characters stay with us because there are pieces of them in us
all." -Lloyd Noonan, Dramatic Writing Editor, Quay Journal. "An
extraordinary, well-balanced and perfect evening of theatre - so
clever, so witty, so insightful and so moving."" -Kieron Barry,
Metro Pulse. "Having incarnated a few of Ms. Soland's characters, I
am always struck by her profoundly unique voice that somehow finds
a way to touch us all. Disarmingly, her characters in Truth Be Told
engage the audience like candy to a child, until she invites us to
grow up by exposing old wounds and adding salt where we need to
heal."" -John D'Aquino, Actor/Writer.

1f, 2m / Dramatic Comedy / Interior Cabo San Lucas is a romantic
comedy about two misfits and a postal employee who turn an
apartment upside down while searching for love, courage and
something to sell on Ebay. Two men break into a house and start
grabbing everything they can. Little do they know that they're not
alone. It seems that the owner, a young woman whose fiance just
left her, has taking a fistful of sleeping pills with some booze
and is trying to sleep away her troubles for good under a blanket
on the couch. When she's discovered, she's so discombobulated that
it takes her a while to figure out that she's being robbed. When
she does discover it, she doesn't really care (she was just killing
herself anyway). It turns out that while the one crook is a
hardened criminal, the other is just a nice guy who happened to
have a gun and who has been manipulated by the other one. The nice
guy is horrified when he finds out that she's trying to kill
herself. The bad guy takes off with the loot, but the good one
stays behind and calls 911. In the midst of Grace's attempted
suicide being thwarted by two house burglars, there are many
comedic opportunities. And although funny, Cabo San Lucas has
substance and truth that will make anyone feel for our human
condition and frailty. "Those tired of playing second fiddle to the
showier male roles might take a page from the author of this one
act...who wrote a meaty starring role for herself...a great role
for women, by a woman." - Jenelle Riley, Back Stage West "Cabo San
Lucas also features its writer, Lisa Soland, in a lead role and
Soland knows her comic strengths and plays to them. Her Grace,
abandoned by her fiance as they were about to leave for a Cabo San
Lucas honeymoon (and currently being burgled by two incompetents as
she attempts to bid the world good-bye with an overdose of sleeping
pills), is hilarious. Her progression as the pills begin to take
effect is a small tour de force of physical comedy. Jeff Charlton,
as nasty burglar Jack, displays both nice timing and effective
menace, and Bill Lewis, as the hapless Guy, is appealing as the boy
who burgles girl, boy saves girl, boy may get girl in the end.
Director Linda L. Rand paces the play well and uses her actors'
abilities effectively. The show's production values are simple but
perfectly appropriate for this easy-to-like afternoon." - Janis
Hashe, NoHo La News Magazine
