Rasher Moorigan has a secret that only his mother knows. Tonight  – for the first time in over thirty years – mother and son spend May Eve together in a wreck of a house down the backlanes of Dublin. Melding reality and myth, Crackskull Row is the story of an Irish family’s desperate actions and forbidden loves, “exploring rage, dissolution, sexual perversity and family history with a bleak and penetrating acuity.”

Critics’ Pick: “Richly satisfying… It is Ms. Molloy’s salty, slangy yet singsong dialogue that most resonates. Conor McPherson & Martin McDonagh might have to set another place at their table.” -The New York Times

“Molloy’s writing is deft… Crackskull is gorgeous.” -Time Out

“Intensely literate and fun to hear (especially when recited by this superb cast).” -TheaterMania

the cell’s production of Crackskull Row was first presented at Origin’s 1st Irish Theatre Festival 2016 where it received the Best Production award
