The White Liars is a one-act play by Peter Shaffer, first performed in 1967 originally titled White Lies. The White Liars revolves around Sophie Lemberg, an eccentric and disillusioned fortune teller living in a decaying seaside resort, and the two young men who consult her. It soon becomes clear that their lives are much stranger than the fiction Sophie tries to create in her magic ball.

Translated into Afrikaans as Nood Leer Lieg and performed by students of the University of Stellenbosch Drama Department in 1970. The director was Theuns Meyer and the cast were Juanita Swanepoel, Phil du Plessis and Fred Nel.
