Looking for an unforgettable theatre experience? It’s your final chance to see LIE LOW, the critically acclaimed dark comedy — which just received a Helen Hayes Award Recommendation — produced by contemporary Irish arts organization Solas Nua.
After a home invasion, Faye hasn’t slept in twenty days. She’s fine, though! She really is! Living off Rice Krispies and adrenaline, she enlists her brother Naoise in an increasingly absurd attempt at exposure therapy. But Naoise has a hidden secret that’s about to surface. Lie Low is a dark comedy about trauma, the lies we tell ourselves, and the outrageous ways our brains work. Or don’t.
Critics are raving.
Broadway World praises LIE LOW as “sharp, funny, and achingly human,” noting how Ciara Elizabeth Smyth captures “the painful absurdity of Faye’s position – of wanting to be fine, of struggling to find useful help, of trying to put your life back together when it doesn’t even really feel in pieces and when you can’t figure out why they don’t quite fit together correctly.”
Washington City Paper calls it a masterful blend of comedy and tension, walking “the line between situational comedy with big laughs and serious drama that keeps you on the edge of your seat.” Performers Megan Graves and Cody Nickell deliver chemistry that’s “both touching and haunting.”
