Faye's afraid.
She's not sleeping, she doesn't trust ducks and all she's had to eat this week is a box of dry Rice Krispies. A doctor recommends a form of exposure therapy, so Faye enlists the help of her brother, Naoise. But Naoise has a devastating secret that's about to explode.
Lie Low is the award-winning, critically acclaimed dark, funny and surreal new play by Ciara Elizabeth Smyth described by critics as “a masterclass, the standout performance” and “gripping entertainment”.
Lie Low is part of the Traverse's £1 Ticket Project.
