Jarrott Productions returns to live, in-person performances with a special limited engagement of the hit Broadway show The Lifespan of a Fact, by Jeremy Kareken & David Murrell and Gordon Farrell.

The Lifespan of a Fact is based on the stirring true story of John d'Agata's essay, “What Happens There,” about the Las Vegas suicide of teenager Levi Presley. Jim Fingal is a fresh-out-of-Harvard fact checker for a prominent but sinking New York magazine. John d’Agata is a talented writer with a transcendent essay about the suicide of a teenage boy - an essay that could save the magazine from collapse. When Jim is assigned to fact check D’Agata’s essay, the two come head to head in a comedic yet gripping battle over facts versus truth.
