Christopher Holt, Allie Freed, and Amy Roche in Year of the Rooster.

Gil (Kip Davis) is a sorry-looking young Oklahoman, with scars and an eye-patch, a perennial sad slouch, and an ill-fitting red McDonald’s work shirt. He still lives with his mom (Amy Roche), who infantilizes him; and his vicious manager (Allie Freed) gleefully emasculates him. Some would call Gil a loser. The only thing he has going for him is his cock, and you can be sure it’s not that cock.

No, it’s a rooster named Odysseus Rex (Erik Moody), which, with an abundance of love and steroids, Gil is training to hate like a winner, in Olivia Dufault’s raw and darkly entertaining comedy Year of the Rooster. Not a show for the faint of heart, Year of the Rooster is smart and unsettlingly empathetic, and is cannily performed in a superb new Dramatic Repertory Company show, under the taut direction of Sally Wood.
