“It often seems to me that all detective work is wiping out your false starts and beginning again,” Christie wrote in “Death on the Nile,” “and that is just what some people will not do. They conceive a certain theory, and everything has to fit into that theory. If one little fact will not fit, they throw it aside. But it is always the facts that will not fit that are significant.”
In “True Story,” heading into the final weekend of the Passage
Theater’s world premiere production at Trenton’s historic Mill Hill Playhouse, Lewis focuses on the story of Donnie Lawrence, a man accused of murdering his wife.
