About the show

The Lowdown

Nick Yarris spent twenty-two years on death row for a crime he maintained he did not commit. This play, adapted by Lindsey Ferrentino, dissects the wreckage of a life defined by systemic failure and the heavy cost of being forgotten. It is a quiet, devastating examination of memory and the agonizing gap between truth and the legal system. Adrien Brody and Tessa Thompson make their Broadway debuts with a restraint that keeps the tension in the room razor-thin. Director David Cromer avoids the usual melodrama, letting the script breathe in the silence. It is heavy, necessary work that demands your attention until it closes on July 12.
