"Fisherman's Blues" A Darkly Comic Thrill Ride through the West of Ireland Underworld, Where Romance, Crime, and Sharp Wit Collide. "Mick Donnellan is the new Tarantino." Florence Films. "A unique voice in the west" Irish Theatre Magazine. "Voice of the new generation." Electric Picnic. Jack, recently cut off the dole, lands a job at a shady telesales centre in Galway, only to find it's a front for a timeshare scam. Life takes an unexpected turn when he begins a passionate affair with Dyane, a sharp-witted customer, and dives into Galway's vibrant pub scene alongside his boss, Chris. But their carefree nights take a sinister twist when a washed-up private investigator, Jennings, starts digging into the scam. Soon, Dyane and two other women vanish, forcing Jack, Chris, and Jennings into a desperate search. As their ties to Galway's criminal underworld deepen, the once-wild Irish melodies take on a haunting note, reflecting their dangerous descent. Music and Irish lyrics flow through the story, with the poetic strains of "Fisherman's Blues" by The Waterboys weaving throughout, capturing the wild, untamed spirit of the Irish coast and the unpredictable lives of its characters. The song echoes through the narrative, hinting that it might hold answers to the mysteries unfolding-its lyrics becoming a refuge that lingers in Jack's mind as he searches for meaning in the chaos around him. With flavours reminiscent of Martin McDonagh's sharp wit, Ken Bruen's gritty crime, Mike McCormack's lyrical storytelling, and Flann O'Brien's surreal humour, this tale is both uniquely Irish and universally gripping. From the mind of acclaimed playwright Mick Donnellan, Fisherman's Blues weaves a gripping tale of love, friendship, and danger. Be prepared for a uniquely Irish thriller that lingers long after the final page. "Reminiscent of Joyce, with a modern slant." Irish Culture Centre of Denmark.
