People behind the production
Lie Of The Mind is a dynamic performer name drawing inspiration from Sam Shepard’s acclaimed drama A Lie of the Mind. While the stage work debuted off-Broadway in 1985 and remains a cornerstone of Shepard’s canon, this contemporary performer carries the title forward into music and live performance, blending storytelling, intensity, and intimate conveying of human emotion. The most recent high‑profile alignment with the Shepard canon comes from Raven Theatre’s reimagined revival in Chicago in early 2025, which helped reintroduce audiences to themes of memory, truth, and resilience that the work explores.
