  • COLLATERAL TRUTH, by Greg McAfee

    Collateral Truth unfolds over a single day inside a small newsroom where a difficult story forces colleagues to confront the limits of their ideals. As pressure mounts, personal history, professional loyalty and moral certainty collide, and doing the “right” thing becomes anything but clear. The play asks what we owe the truth, what we owe each other, and what we are willing to risk when those obligations come into conflict.
