Small town secrets
Asylum Productions stage ‘The Chronicles of Oggle’ by Peter Gowen in Solstice, Navan, on Wednesday next, 8th April. Meet Pakie. An orphan, a storyteller, an adventurer, a survivor. He may not be the sharpest sandwich in the toolbox, but Pakie knows a thing or two about the history of his native town – from the vicious Vikings, to the not-so-Christian Brothers. Pakie’s a laugh a minute - but Pakie’s got secrets. Secrets the God fearing people of Oggle may not be ready to hear.
Written and performed by Peter Gowen (Charlie, Love/Hate, The Butcher Boy), and directed by Donal Gallagher (Love All, Bedbound), this is a hilarious and heart-breaking story of small towns and even smaller minds.
