Synopsis

Gil is a loser.

He works at McDonald's, lives with his ailing mother, and hasn't had a girlfriend since...ever.

But that's all about to change.

He's been secretly training (and drugging) a rooster to fight.

And Odysseus Rex aka “Odie” is the baddest barnyard bird there is.

Gil has so much faith in Odie's abilities that he bets everything on him -- but victory and revenge may not yield the delicious spoils he anticipates.

A fiercely comic play about cockfighting, connections, and clawing your way to the top.
