| Description |
Blistering words and beats collide for break-neck physical theatre.
Howie the Rookie is a white-knuckle ride through the mean streets of Dublin, fuelled by a molotov cocktail of vivid characters, pitch-black humour and comic-book violence that makes Tarantino look tame. Christopher Samuel Carroll plays both roles in an acting masterclass that returns to his Irish roots.The ricocheting lyricism of Mark O’Rowe’s award-winning modern classic is driven by live accompaniment from drummer Steve Fitzgerald in a pulsating piece of theatre with all the brutal beauty of a bare-knuckle brawl. |
