Last Friday we welcomed in The Year of the Dog. On Thursday, Theatre of NOTE is welcoming in the Year of the Rooster, a play by Olivia Default having its Los Angeles Premiere.
Year of the Rooster is set in the world of cockfighting as a loveless McDonald’s employee, Gil, who is taking care of his mother, is preparing to enter the sport with Odysseus Rex a beast of an animal. He’s counting on this bird to change his floundering life. But will it accomplish all he hopes? Or will those hopes be dashed?
The play stars Keston John, Amanda C. Miller, Travis Moscinski, Christopher Neiman, Greg Nussen and Kathleen O’Grady. This production is directed by McKerrin Kelly. There is a warning indicating that this play is not suitable for children under 16 years of age due to strong language and subject matter.
