A LIE OF THE MIND BY SAM SHEPARD
  February 11-14 | 8pm Thurs-Sat & 2pm Sun
  Set in the gritty American West, a severe incident of spousal abuse leaves two families' lives forever changed. The two families are connected by the marraige of Jake and Beth. Jake's beating and subsequent hospitalization of his wife Beth, initiates the beginning of the play. Exploring family disfunction and the nature of love, the play follows Jake as he searches for meaning after Beth, and her family, as they struggle with Beth's brain damage. The violent suspense will grip you. Playwright Sam Shepard portrays a true snapshot of American culture today tainted with the harsh realities of alcoholism, domestic violence, and families in conflict. Wayne Robinson, director.
