Get ready for an evening of gripping drama that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
Blackburn Drama Club returns to the Empire stage with Pack of Lies — a tense, thought-provoking thriller based on a true story that rocked suburban Britain during the Cold War.
When an ordinary English couple open their door to Scotland Yard, their quiet life is turned upside down. Their closest friends and neighbours — the charming Canadian Krogers — aren’t quite who they seem. As loyalties are tested and secrets begin to unravel, friendship and truth collide in a web of espionage and betrayal.
Filled with moral conflict and emotional depth, Pack of Lies explores what happens when trust is destroyed and ordinary people are forced to make extraordinary choices.
“Lying is a virulent disease that saps patriots and traitors alike of their humanity.” – The New York Times
