Lights! Camera! Action! Get ready for the return of Hollywood to the Barn Theatre with the highly anticipated comeback of the smash hit "Stones in His Pockets."
Following its successful 2021 run, which included a sellout transfer to the Lyric Theatre in Belfast, this beloved production returns to the Barn before embarking on a limited UK tour in 2024 and a major tour of the UK and Ireland in 2025.
Experience the authentic rediscovery of this worldwide phenomenon as two Irish extras find themselves thrust into the spotlight. Set in rural Ireland, the arrival of a Hollywood studio to film a historical blockbuster turns a small village upside down. Through the eyes of local lads Charlie Conlon and Jake Quinn, who work as extras, the glamorous facade of Tinseltown quickly gives way to the harsh reality of life.
Under the direction of Matthew McElhinney, son of the play’s writer and original director, this new production promises a fresh take on the hysterically funny, thought-provoking, and witty comedy. "Stones in His Pockets" has garnered numerous awards, including the Olivier and Evening Standard Awards for Best New Comedy, along with three Tony nominations on Broadway.
With a successful four-year run in the West End and adoring audiences worldwide, this timeless classic is not to be missed.
