JOHN, MAY, JAMES AND ME is a captivating family drama based on the writings of Stanislaus Joyce, the younger brother of the renowned James Joyce. The play delves into the complex relationships within the Joyce family, featuring their long-suffering mother, May, and their drunken, spendthrift father, John, whose actions led the family to ruin. Through a blend of humor and pathos, song and story, the play offers a unique insider’s perspective on the chaotic domestic life that profoundly influenced the works of one of the 20th century’s greatest novelists.
