By Marie Jones

At
CENTREPOINT THEATRE,
DUBAI COMMUNITY THEATRE & ARTS CENTRE
Wednesday 12 – Saturday 15 March 2008
Dubai Community Theatre & Arts Centre in association with Popular Productions Ltd are proud to announce that the Irish smash hit, multiple award winning comedy ‘Stones in his Pockets’ will come to Dubai from Wednesday 12 – Saturday 15 March 2008.
‘Stones in his Pockets’ is the award-winning, hilarious and sometimes poignant tale of a quiet Irish community and its change by the arrival of a massive Hollywood movie shoot. Winner of the prestigious Olivier & Evening Standard awards for Best Comedy after running for four record breaking years in London’s West End, it also ran on Broadway, where it received a Tony Award nomination for Best Comedy.
Universally loved by all who see it, ‘Stones in his Pockets’ has a disarming simplistic charm all of its own. The entire story is brought to life by two highly talented West End actors who play over 15 characters between them in a triumph of characterization and physical comedy. From the two cheeky Irish lads intent on becoming big movie players to the diva lead Hollywood actress, whose Irish accent leaves a lot to be desired, ‘Stones In His Pockets’ stands out as one of the most unique plays of its time.
The production will play for a total of 5 performances at the Centrepoint Theatre, Dubai Community Theatre & Arts Centre at the Mall of the Emirates. It will open on Wednesday 12th and run until Saturday 15th March 2008 – Just in time for the St Patrick’s Day celebrations!
