A family play, though it deals with a controversial topic, THE TRUTH introduces audiences to the Suttons.  Olivia Sutton, a forty-five year-old Christian mother of two is facing the empty nest syndrome as her two children plan lives of their own.  Olivia's younger child is 18 year-old Chris, a senior in high school and a local football hero.  Her daughter, Tiffany has just finished graduate school and the family has gathered for her homecoming as the play begins.  Tiffany's new boyfriend, Donnie Harrison, a pro athlete turned physical therapist accompanies her on the trip.  As the play opens, overprotective Olivia and her family, (which includes her sister, "Aunt" Angie, and her brother-in-law Milton) are all questions about Tiffany's new beau.

 “This is a Christian household.”

Meanwhile, Christopher Sutton is all-state, an all-star and the apple of his mother's eye.  The fact that his father has been absent for most of his life has been well covered by the devotion he receives from the rest of his tight-knit family.  His best friend, AJ has been his constant companion since childhood and only AJ knows the secret that threatens to destroy the golden boy image Chris and his family have carefully crafted for him.  Chris and AJ have been 'fooling around' with each other in secret- for years.

One day, shortly after his arrival, Donnie discovers Chris and AJ in a compromising position on the living room couch.  Chris panics, scared of his undercover sexuality being discovered- but Donnie reassures him saying, "this can be just between us, man" but he urges Chris not to cross the line into full-fledged 'gayness' warning "they don't let the boys in pink play ball."

With a sizzling plot that careens to an unforgettable climax, Chris struggles to come to grips with how to reconcile what he wants with the expectations and responsibilities of his family.
