Jake has brutally beaten his wife Beth and left her for dead. Her brain damage is significant. His guilt is crippling. Jake’s brother, Frankie, searches for the truth of Beth’s condition, while Jake’s father haunts him from the urn beneath his childhood bed.
An unlikely love story, A LIE OF THE MIND is both a chilling indictment of true love and an affirmation of its abiding ties. Capital T is proud to present this gritty, darkly humorous American drama by Pulitzer Prize winning playwright Sam Shepherd.
Starring multiple B Iden Payne and Austin Critics' Table Award winners Kenneth Wayne Bradley, Liz Fisher, Joey Hood, Melanie Dean, Travis Dean, Karen Jambon, Mark Pickell and Rebecca Robinson.
