Too Good To Be True

Loosely based on the life of Elmyr de Hory, one of the most notorious art forgers of the 20th century, Too Good To Be True pieces together facts and fables of the infamous imposter by those who knew him or thought they did. The musical chronicles the adventures of Elmyr and his partner in crime, the actress Helka Rosika, from the time they meet as starving artists through their nefarious rise to fame and fortune. Along the way, philosophical questions about the meaning of art, truth, and talent are revealed.
