Druid are hitting the road once more for a tour of Three Short Comedies by Seán O’Casey. Following their record-breaking 2024 tour of O’Casey’s The Shadow of a Gunman, Druid return to The Everyman in Cork with these classic rip-roaring one-act plays by one of Ireland’s greatest playwrights. Set in a post office, A Pound on Demand (1939) is the tale of Jerry and Sammy, who badly need a quick injection of cash to continue their night on the town. In Bedtime Story (1951), poor John Jo Mulligan learns the hard way that inviting members of the opposite sex to Miss Mossie’s lodging house comes with serious consequences. All hell breaks loose in The End of the Beginning (1937) when Darry Berrill and his wife Lizzie agree to swap their household roles – and that’s before Darry’s clumsy friend Barry arrives. These short tales of misadventure will be directed by Garry Hynes and performed by Druid ensemble members Marie Mullen, Rory Nolan and Marty Rea, alongside Venetia Bowe, Caitríona Ennis and Liam Heslin.
