By: BWW News Desk Jan. 24, 2017
Daniel Wade's debut thriller, The Collector, previews tonight at The New Theatre! This gripping tale of regret and broken masculinity is an exciting piece by a very promising new writer.

Tickets: €16 (€12.50 concession)
In the Dark Horse Pool Academy, the games go on long after closing time and only the toughest customers last the night.
Oren Collins, a small-time thug and the hall's best player, must finally confront the three main demons afflicting his life, both inside and out: the death of his brother, a long-overdue debt to a loanshark, and his conscience.
As time steadily runs out and tensions boil viciously over, Oren deceitfully enlists the help of two people to aid him in meeting his fate: Des, his uncle and the hall's manager, and Joseph, a visiting American student with a mysterious link to Oren's dead brother...
A play of invidious secrets and broken masculinity, The Collector simmers to a disquieting conclusion.
The Collector is the debut play of Daniel Wade, directed by Cian Ó Ceallacháin in association with Underdog Theatre Productions
