Theatrical Version

Tweaking the events of a story so it makes you look better after telling it.
Person 1: Why did you say you told that guy off? He totally made you wet yourself.

Person 2: Shut up man! I gave them the theatrical version so they don't know I have bladder problems.

Person 1: Bladder problems? Now I'm getting the theatrical version.

cheap theatrics

Insincere emotions and behavior intended to achieve a desired outcome or to be perceived as the victim. This phrase is similar to “crocodile tears” but this phrase is saying that they are putting up a big act that is not appropriate to the situation.
Person A: (points to his ear telling someone their boombox is too loud)
Person B: starts crying and says “You (Person A) embarrassed me in front of everyone”
