Stones in his Pockets

by Marie Jones

directed by Stefan Escreet, designed by Imogen Cloet

Theatre by the Lake in association with Jennings Brewery

Saturday 27 March - Saturday 17 April,

Main House

Stones in his Pockets is the award-winning, hilarious and sometimes poignant tale of a quiet Irish community and the change it undergoes with the arrival of a massive Hollywood movie shoot. This is a two-man tour de force featuring Theatre by the Lake favourites, Dennis Herdman and James Nickerson.  In a triumph of characterisation and physical comedy they play a “cast of thousands”'- including the two Irish fellas intent on becoming big movie players, the diva lead Hollywood actress whose Irish accent leaves a lot to be desired, a Scots minder and the last surviving extra from The Quiet Man.

Winner of the prestigious Olivier and Evening Standard awards for Best Comedy after running for four record breaking years in the West End, it then ran on Broadway and received a Tony Award nomination for Best Comedy.
