Solas Nua: Crocodile Fever

Solas Nua presents Meghan Tyler’s surreal, grotesque black comedy *Crocodile Fever*, set in Northern Ireland in 1989 during the pressure of the Troubles. After a rebellious woman crashes back into her pious sister’s life, the estranged siblings must face the disturbing legacy of their tyrannical father. Their reunion spirals into a volatile story of sisterhood, trauma, revenge, and family violence, fueled by Taytos, gin, 1980s music, and a chainsaw.

Directed by Jeda de Bri, the production combines dark humor with graphic and unsettling subject matter.
