Juno And The Paycock

The University of Sunderland’s drama department take over Arts Centre Washington presenting a range of classic and contemporary texts.

In this modern classic, playwright O’Casey mixes drama and pathos with robust humour as he creates a vivid depiction of Irish working-class life during a bloody civil war. When the Boyles learn of an unexpected family inheritance, hopes rise and plans are hatched, only to be confronted by a harsh dose of reality.
