Craving By Johnny Hanrahan & John Browne
Written by Johnny Hanrahan and John Browne Craving is a biting comedy, a pastiche thriller, a ground-breaking multi-media theatre event in which live music, written by John Browne, film by radical filmmaker Alan Gilsenan and searing text by Johnny Hanrahan culminate in a emotionally intense drama.
When Noel Lucey lands the contract to produce an international advert for a sexy new scent called CRAVING his roar of delight is as loud as the Celtic Tiger’s. This cool Cork head is about to make good. Meanwhile, Aisling, his well-heeled, articulate young wife is forging a reputation for herself as a fearless ruthless investigative journalist. She’s on the case of everybody who matters in Irish Business and Politics.
Into their lives, as star of the ad campaign, erupts John Paul, a wild, cynical, obsessive young rent boy from the ghettos of Cork. Three lives explode in a welter of sex, lies and videotape.
"A dynamic piece of multi-media theatre ... all three performances are strong but Burke is outstanding" Gerry McCarthy, The Sunday Times.
“Forget CK1. Forget noir. This is Norrie.” Conor O’Brien, The Sunday Independent.
“Hanrahan conveys the catastrophic collision of two worlds with rare verve, originality and savage humour.” “Craving is a sensory feast, riveting performances, and Brown’s original score is powerfully performed.” Marion McKeone, The Sunday Business Post.
