Vincent Woods
Set in County Leitrim. Three years pass between the first and second piece.
John Hughdy and Tom John was subsequently rewritten and restaged by Skehana productions as 'On the Way Out' in 2002.
John Hughdy and Tom John comprises two short companion plays. John Hughdy is a natural showman who delights in people and delights in shocking them. He is a storyteller, an easy conversationalist, someone who would talk to himself or to the cat or the dog and think nothing of it. Tom John is isolated in a way that his father never was: he is one of those young men who can be found lonely at bar-counters in small towns or drunk in their empty fields with no one to go home to.
