Stones in his Pockets by Marie Jones

Season: 30 March – 13 April 2019

Director: Kristof Haines

WHEN:  AUDITION COMPLETED.  Announcements soon. 

WHERE: The Company Room, at The Rose Centre. Belmont

A Hollywood film production arrives in a small rural Irish town, bringing change, opportunity and upheaval into the lives of locals and newcomers alike. Stones in His Pockets weaves together comedy and tragedy to tell a beautifully humane story which speaks to our fundamental need to find a community and a purpose.

This production is a two-hander with each actor shifting to portray 7-8 different characters over the course of the play.

Basic proficiency with Irish/UK accents is a plus.

Characters – for 2 actors:

Charlie Conlon - Mid-30’s former video store owner

Simon - 1st A.D. (Ambitious Dublin A-type)

Caroline Giovanni - American star

Fin - A young local, Sean’s friend

Clem - The director, English, quiet nature, not much understanding of the local community

Brother Gerard - Local teacher

Jock Campbell - Caroline’s security man, Scottish

Mr Harkin - Sean’s father

Jake Quinn - Mid 30’s local, recently returned from living in the States

Aisling - 3rd A.D., young, pretty, anxious to impress those above her, no interest in those beneath

Mickey - A local in his seventies, was an extra in The Quiet Man

John - An accent coach

Dave - A crew member, Cockney
