Set in a working-class tenement of Dublin in 1922, during the Civil War, Juno and the Paycock is not only of one of Seán O’Casey’s finest plays but a masterpiece of Irish drama.

While its story takes place during one of the most turbulent periods in Irish history, Juno is also chock full of O’Casey’s trademark humour.

The play is peopled with a host of great characters –

Cllr Gerry Walsh, Eilo Vickers, Elaine Willis, Geraldine Butler and Deputy Stephen Donnelly.
