Moynan King is a Toronto-based performer, director, curator, writer, and scholar. As an actor she has over forty professional film, theatre, and TV credits, most recently with roles in the hit CBC series Baroness von Sketch Show, and John Greyson’s silent subway thriller Murder in Passing, and his feature Last Car. She is the author of six plays, the creator of performance installations, and was the co-creator and director of trace, which toured across Canada.
Gavin Crawford is one of Canada’s brightest comedic and dramatic performers — best known for star turns on THIS HOUR HAS 22 MINUTES, and his eponymous The Gavin Crawford Show on the Comedy Network. This Second City alum and Gemini Award-winner has made a serious (and seriously funny) contribution to this country’s rich comedic tradition. He has also produced several one-man shows, including the sold-out Fringe Festival hit, “Friend” “Like” #Me.
The Liars Club Manifesto:
Art is important because it is morally ambiguous. In this totally polarized culture –where we are alone, believing the various orthodoxies we find on our computers — each of us has come to imagine that we are are a crusader for what is right and what is wrong. WE NEED ART. Art offers no truth. It offers no answers; only questions, it shocks, upsets, and unsettles, and demands that we use our own minds and hearts to think, feel, explore undiscovered countries, and change our mind. Art is a LIE. This is why we need The Liars Club!
