Ah, what can God do again the stupidity of men!
Dublin, 1922. The Irish Civil War is tearing the nation apart. In the small family's tenement flat, Juno Boyle, a resilient matriarch whose sharp wit is a survival skill, struggles to make ends meet and keep the family together. Her husband, 'Captain' Jack Boyle, considers himself a ship's captain but sails no further than the pub. Then fate comes knocking with news of a substantial inheritance.
Sean O'Casey's tragicomedy was first performed at the Abbey Theatre, Dublin, in 1924, and revived at the Gielgud Theatre, London, in September 2024.
'The power of Juno and the Paycock never fails to surprise, enthrall, and inspire. Its passionate violence, deep humanity, lively humor, and tragic despair are immersed in the very spirit of Ireland itself.' - Daily Mail
