Stephen Fry’s ‘The Liar’

Thursday, June 4th, 2020

The Liar, based on the best-selling semi-autobiographical comic novel by internationally renowned British institution Stephen Fry, is a fast-paced, rude and very funny comedy about learning to accept who you are in life.

The Liar has been awarded development funding by MEDIA, Creative England and Ingenious Media and is greenlit, and currently scheduling.

We have a very exciting cast lined up making it a ‘Best of British’ ensemble. Official announcement to follow.

A brilliant, manipulative young man, who has a strong compulsion to lie, becomes embroiled in an elaborate ‘game’ of lying and finds himself in a world where nobody can be trusted. This is the educational career of public school student Adrian Healey (Stephen Fry’s alter-ego, and an inveterate liar), whose school pranks somehow get him embroiled in an international espionage case.
