- Amb pedres a les butxaques (original en anglès, Stones in His Pockets) és una obra de teatre de dos personatges escrita el 1996 per per a la companyia DubbleJoint Theatre de Dublín (Irlanda). Ha estat traduïda al català el 2001 per Roger Peña. L'obra és una tragicomèdia sobre una petita ciutat rural d'Irlanda on molts dels municipis són extres en un pel·lícula de Hollywood. La història se centra en Charlie Conlon i Jake Quinn, que, com bona part de la ciutat, són empleats com a extres per a la filmació. El punt clau de l'obra és quan un adolescent local se suïcida, ofegant-se amb pedres a les butxaques, després que fos humiliat per una de les estrelles del cinema. El guió fa una crida al repartiment de dos per interpretar els 15 personatges (homes i dones), sovint canviant el gènere i la veu amb rapidesa i amb un mínim canvi de vestuari: un barret aquí, una jaqueta. La comèdia també deriva dels esforços de l'equip de producció per crear el "sentiment irlandès" adequat: un ideal romanticitzat que sovint entra en conflicte amb la realitat de la vida diària. L'obra es va mostrar per primera vegada a Belfast el 1996 i va tenir èxit al West End de Londres. El repartiment original de Conleth Hill i després van portar l'espectacle a Broadway. Després d'haver guanyat el Premi Irish Times / ESB Irish Theatre a la millor producció el 1999, l'obra també va guanyar dos Premis Laurence Olivier el 2001 a la millor comèdia nova i millor actor (Conleth Hill).

- Stones in His Pockets is a two-hander written in 1996 by Marie Jones for the DubbleJoint Theatre Company in Dublin, Ireland. The play is a tragicomedy about a small rural town in Ireland where many of the townspeople are extras in a Hollywood film. The story centres on Charlie Conlon and Jake Quinn, who, like much of the town, are employed as extras for the filming. The key point in the play is when a local teenager commits suicide, by drowning himself with stones in his pockets, after he is humiliated by one of the film stars. The script calls upon the cast of two to perform all 15 characters (men and women), often switching gender and voice swiftly and with minimal costume change – a hat here, a jacket there. Comedy also derives from the efforts of the production crew to create the proper "Irish feel" – a romanticised ideal that often conflicts with the reality of daily life. The play was first shown in Belfast in 1996 and went on to have a successful run in London's West End. The original cast of Conleth Hill and Sean Campion later took the show to Broadway. Having won the Irish Times/ESB Irish Theatre Award for Best Production in 1999, the play also won two Olivier Awards in 2001 for Best New Comedy and Best Actor (Conleth Hill). (en)
