Description
Faye's insomnia has been a constant companion since her home was broken into. Despite struggling to sleep, she finds solace in the simple things - like eating a box of dry Rice Krispies. Desperate to shake off her restless nights, Faye turns to an unconventional form of therapy with the help of her brother Naoise. As they embark on this unorthodox treatment, dark secrets begin to surface that threaten to upend their fragile reality. Lie Low is a powerful exploration of fear, trauma, and family dynamics, delving into the human brain's response to sexual assault. This edition was published in conjunction with the London premiere at the Royal Court Theatre in May 2024.
