As previously revealed Tony award-nominee J. Smith-Cameron (Succession’s Gerri Kellman) will star as Juno Boyle alongside Mark Rylance (Jerusalem, Dr Semmelweiss) as ‘Captain’ Jack Boyle in Seán O’Casey’s masterpiece.
Set to join the duo are Paul Hilton as ‘Joxer’ Daly, Aisling Kearns as Mary Boyle, Eimhin Fitzgerald Doherty as Johnny Boyle, Ingrid Craigie as Mrs Tancred, Anna Healy (as Mrs Maisie Madigan), Chris Walley as Charles Bentham, Seán Duggan as ‘Needle’ Nugent, Leo Hanna as Jerry Devine, Jessica Cervi, Caolan McCarthy, Bryan Moriarty, John Rice and Jacinta Whyte.
This new production of the 1924 play will be directed by Tony and Olivier award-winner Matthew Warchus (Matilda The Musical, Pride).
The play follows a working-class family in Dublin during the Irish Civil War who are set to inherit a large sum of money. It was turned into a film in 1930 by Alfred Hitchcock.
Juno and the Paycock opens at the Gielgud Theatre on 21 September.
