A LIE OF THE MIND

iboozer Theatre , , ,

As Raven Theatre puts it: “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.”

TTS Faculty Azar Kazemi is the Director! Current TTS Student, soon to be alumni Emma Burkey (BFA Directing, 2025) is the Assistant Director. TTS Faculty Member Kristina Fluty is the Intimacy Coordinator, & Martine-Key Green Rogers, [Our Dean], is the Dramaturg.

A Lie Of The Mind, Closes March 29th 2025, at Raven Theatre.

After taking a job in a wealthy white man’s house, Bigger unwittingly unleashes a series of events that violently and irrevocably seal his fate.
