The Jesus Hickey

Luke Yankee

4.9/5 (24704 ratings)

Description:THE JESUS HICKEY is an irreverent, romantic comedy about the seduction of celebrity funneled through the window of religious fanaticism. The recipient of the TRU Voices Award and the Joel and Phyllis Ehrlich Award, given for “a socially relevant, commercially viable, new work of theatre”, The Los Angeles production starred Harry Hamlin and was praised by critics as “a solid winner”, “brilliant” and “a contemporary masterpiece.” The play takes place not too long ago in the rundown, portside town of Sligo, Ireland. Agnes Flynn is a simple girl from a poor family who has been raised by Grandmaire, her outspoken, deliciously coarse grandmother and her father, Sean, a scrappy dockworker. When Agnes goes out necking with Seamus, the local "bad boy", she comes home with a hickey... in the shape of Jesus! Soon, she develops mystical, healing powers and brings fame and fortune to her family and the rundown, seaport town. "The Jesus Hickey is a masterpiece that's the equivalent of the great recent Irish plays by Martin McDonagh and Brian Friel. So great and so piercing is its satire that it could easily be termed a contemporary classic on the order of J.M. Synge's Playboy of the Western World of a century ago...the play delivers humor that's ribald and witty while at the same time offering thought-provoking drama...The Jesus Hickey balances thousands of observations about human aspirations and failings on the head of a pin, which in itself is something of a minor miracle!” -- Eric Marchese, Backstage The play is performed on a simple, unit set with a cast of six and is also available for production licensing.
