Stones in His Pockets
140 Clarendon Street Boston
In the Olivier Award-winning comedy Stones in His Pockets, a big budget Hollywood film descends upon a small village in Ireland, turning everything upside down. Two down-on-their-luck locals (Jake and Charlie) get the chance of a lifetime, playing extras. But can they go from milking cows to living high on the hog? Two actors play more than a dozen roles in this funny, dark and poignant look at the complicated relationship between Tinseltown and its subjects. Witty banter blends with self-doubt and frustration as Jake and Charlie try to find a sense of reality in a world where glitz, glamour and easy money are only temporary. Stones in His Pockets ran for more than three years in London's West End and was nominated for three Tony Awards.
