Solas Nua: Crocodile Fever

Solas Nua’s *Crocodile Fever* is a surreal black comedy set in Northern Ireland in 1989. After a farmhouse window shatters, rebellious Fianna Devlin returns unexpectedly to the life of her deeply religious sister, Alannah. Reunited after years apart, the sisters are forced to face the grotesque legacy of their tyrannical father, unleashing violence, revenge, and long-buried trauma.

Written by Meghan Tyler and directed by Jeda de Bri, the play uses Taytos, gin, 1980s music, and a chainsaw to explore sisterhood and the oppressive atmosphere of the Troubles.
