Eastern Angles are on tour again this spring with a new production of Marie Jones’ smash-hit play Stones In His Pockets. This multi-award winning play sees two actors take on 15 different characters. Inspired by the cinematic stylings of Wes Anderson, Eastern Angles are also adding newly composed music and video projection to this much-loved play.


Stones In His Pockets follows local lads Jake and Charlie, working as extras on a Hollywood epic movie, that has taken over their small village in rural Ireland. Switching from plucky Irish extra to
know-it-all American movie star with a flick of the wrist, Jake and Charlie take on all 15 characters to tell the story of the impact this movie has on their local community. The result is a sad, hilarious
and irresistible play that pushes the boundaries of storytelling.

Director Jake Smith said: “I am delighted to be directing my first show with Eastern Angles this Spring and to be doing so with such a fantastic script! This play provides us with a sense of who we are, in order to realise who we want to be. The courage to plough our own furrow to create something within us and our community.”

Stones In His Pockets is touring across the East of England from 14th March – 18th May. For all the latest information and booking details, visit easternangles.co.uk or phone the Eastern Angles Box Office on 01473 211498.
