Solas Nua: Theatre presents Howie the Rookie, by Mark O'Rowe. Linda Murray directs.
The Howie Lee gets dragged into a bizarre feud of honour involving a scabies-invested mattress against The Rookie Lee, which spirals out of control and ends in his own personal tragedy. The Rookie Lee has problems of his own: Massively in debt to a terrifying gangland figure for killing his prized Siamese fighting fish, he steels himself for a hideous revenge until he is championed from an unlikely quarter by his onetime enemy. Howie The Rookie is a white-knuckle ride through a nightmare Dublin, where enemies and allies are interchangeable, where the most brutal events take on a mythic significance.
