STONES IN HIS POCKETS

by American Way Staff

Reading, Berkshire, England
A highly regarded, award-winning comedy performed at The Hexagon, the play tells of an American film being shot in Ireland from the perspective of two Irish extras. Underlying the humor is a critique of Hollywood’s romantic and misguided vision of Ireland, contrasted with the filmmakers’ contempt for the real community around them. www.stonesinhispockets.co.uk
