Adapted from the words and works of Truman Capote, Tru is a one-man show which takes place in the writer’s apartment in New York City the week before Christmas 1975. An excerpt from Capote’s infamous novel Answered Prayers Has recently been published in Esquire and the author’s friends, recognizing the characters as thinly veiled versions of themselves, have turned their backs on the man they once considered a close confidant.
