Wes Farley, a screenwriter known for having HIV, is enjoying national attention with his latest film. There's only one problem: he's faked his illness for the past 10 years to boost his career, and is now slowly comprehending the drawbacks of his plan. With the help of his friend Josie, Wes revisits his past and sees how an ill-advised white lie early in life ensnared him in his current situation.

"Comtois & Co. are mining in Gogol's vein: They may make us laugh, but that's what happens when keen-eyed city dwellers tickle a seedy underbelly." -Time Out New York
"By thumbing their noses at the status quo with fast, cheap, and sharp humor, Comtois and his colleagues at Nosedive Productions continue to demonstrate why they're a company to keep an eye on." -nytheatre.com
