CORKTOWN

a World Premiere by Michael Brian Ogden

January 20, 2011 – March 5, 2011

In the dark underworld of modern-day Detroit, Joey — an Army veteran turned enforcer for the Irish Mob — struggles with a crisis of conscience about his work. He’s looking for a way out of “the life,” but ends up finding love in the very last place he expected to find it. Trouble is, his partner Laurence and his sadistic boss Cobb stand between him and a new beginning. –

PRESS QUOTES

“… probably the most ambitious theatrical production I’ve seen …”

– Chelsea Standard

“Everything feels authentic. … the fight choreography, played in close proximity, is better than any we’ve seen anywhere; and according to our resident authority on armaments, ‘they got the guns right.’ ”

– Detroit Theatre Examiner
