The full moon over the highway. A pay phone call in the middle of the night. And a terrible act of violence that forever changes the trajectory of eight people’s lives. Sam Shepard’s A Lie of the Mind follows two families, connected by marriage, as they grapple with the pain and fear of loving and living. Famous for his imagery, language, and tour-de-force roles for actors, Shepard’s plays dig deep into the ideas of family, destiny, and American idealism. Raven’s production, directed by Azar Kazemi, deepens the questions at the heart of the play by layering an Immigrant story on top of the already searing critique of the American Dream at the heart of this American Classic.
This accessibility feature is designed to support the theatre going experience of patrons who are d/Deaf or Hard of Hearing, or who may just prefer to read the text and sound cues in sync with a performance. Our captions are prepared beforehand by an experienced captioner and are displayed as 1-3 sentences per slide. During the performance, our captioner will scroll through the slides so patrons can read the dialogue in real time. The Captions screens are hands-free and provided by Raven free-of-charge.
Spaces are limited, so please contact our box office to make your reservation! Use code LIEACCESS for a $30 ticket.
