Devil Lay Me Down at Theater for the New City

Julian Carthy returns from prison to his father’s trailer on the Texas-Mexico border, hell-bent on carving a fresh life and finding his daughter. There he finds his father Marcus, living with Ro—his much younger live-in girlfriend. And when a spark of interest lights between Julian and Ro, old tensions seethe between father and son, drawing Julian’s brutal past to the surface. A modern Western, at its heart Devil Lay Me Down is a brutal love story, and love song to the American West.
