Hollywood comes to rural Ireland in this hilarious multi-award winner which ran for four years in London’s West End.

Stones in His Pockets is a comedy, with a poignant undercurrent, about a small rural town in Ireland where a Hollywood epic is being filmed. The story centres on Charlie Conlon and Jake Quinn, who, like much of the town, are employed as extras for the filming. After a tragic incident concerning a local teenager, Charlie and Jake assume responsibility for giving an account of events, taking on all the roles themselves. 

A two-hander that delights in exploring the limits of comedy and theatricality, and the collision of romanticised notions of ‘Irishness’ and the harsher reality, Stones in His Pockets has delighted audiences around the world.

Marie Jones’ play was first staged at the Lyric Theatre in Belfast in June 1999 before opening at the Tricycle Theatre, London, in August 1999. It transferred to the New Ambassadors Theatre, London, in May 2000.

Stones in His Pockets won the 2001 Olivier Award for Best New Comedy.
