Stone Don’t Lie is a two-act play about betrayal, revenge, and friendship. Two lifelong friends — Bobby and Jerome [both ex-addicts] are in a “Stone Carving” competition, the outcome of which could save the Cathedral’s bankrupt stone yard training program. The Cathedral’s stone yard is where they both found shelter, and purpose and learned their skills of cutting and carving stones.

Jerome returns to the Stone Yard to exact punishment on Bobby for an act of betrayal which resulted in Jerome suffering a painful and crippling injury. Errol, the new Master Mason, is all that stands between a failed competition, the closure of the Stone yard, and Bobby’s punishment at the hands of Jerome.
