Stones in his Pockets

A detailed Summary of Stones in his Pockets

Welcome to Hollywood's version of Ireland! A happy place where the grass is always greener on the other side! The plot of this amusing tale takes place around two local Irishmen who start work on a film set as extras, this film set is temporary home to the smashing Caroline Giovanni who is one of Hollywood's most famous actors.

But their dreams are shattered when they find out that Hollywood, like everyone else just wants to exploit them. Then when tragedy strikes and a close friend commits suicide in a river by drowning himself with 'Stones in his Pockets.'

The play was set on a proscenium stage, which was bare, except for a row of boots to represent the changing of the characters and two chairs plus a table on wheels.

The genre is of a comic drama with themes that include exploitation and commercialism, as the play explores how the f

The music is traditional Irish folk music which plays during the 'filming.'

Of course before you say this you think, "hold on a minute! Some of those characters really were not believable!"

I give it a full 10 out of 10 rating and I hope other people enjoyed it s much as I did.

The lights, a very important aspect of a film, although during the play the lights are highlighted to point out certain dramatic moments for instance when it shows the extras being filmed the spotlight appears on them from the front as if it was a real film being made.

Anyway, my conclusion is that it's a must see performance and I am just about to go and see it again. This is because it is straight up my street it's got comedy with an unforgettable variety of characters and the two actors who played it deserve another year on the stage!

Below you will find the ticket on the day me and my class mates went in stressed and came out crying from laughter, well at least I did!
