Crocodile Fever<\/h2>\n

*** R16 ***<\/span><\/p>\n

Northern Ireland, 1989. A farmhouse window smashes, and rebellious Fianna Devlin crashes back into the life of her pious sister Alannah.<\/p>\n

Together in the unlovely family home for the first time in years, following the death of their tyrannical father, the sisters are back at each other\u2019s throats in seconds. And when Fianna discovers that the old reptile is in fact still very much alive, all hell breaks loose as they confront his hideous legacy.<\/p>\n

Meghan Tyler\u2019s surreal Crocodile Fever is a riotous dark comedy that refuses to behave. This is sisterhood at full tilt; sharp-tongued and fuelled by Taytos, booze, 80\u2019s anthems, a chainsaw and buried rage. It can\u2019t end happily but it can end gloriously.<\/p>\n

After premiering to critical acclaim at Edinburgh\u2019s Traverse Theatre in 2019 and entertaining London audiences in 2025, the Gaslight Theatre is delighted to be bringing the New Zealand premiere to the stage in May 2026.<\/p>\n

\u201cAn explosive dark comedy… ferociously feminist\u201d – The Guardian<\/p>\n

\u201cQuentin Tarantino would be jealous\u201d – The Times<\/p>\n

\u201cAstounding… A smack in the face in all of the best ways possible\u201d – The Skinny<\/p>\n

\u201cThis play is a bloody masterpiece in every sense, the dialogue pinging around the space, laughter dying in your throat\u201d – British Theatre<\/p>\n

\u201cGleefully dark and gory comedy\u201d – The Stage<\/p>\n
