Strawberry Jack: A Tale from Paradise Heights

From the award winning writer & director of The Haunting of Blaine Manor Strawberry Jack: A Tale from Paradise Heights 'Deuces are wild - not One Eyed Jacks...' Strawberry Jack Grundy was a wild child that grew into a ferocious man. Once the War Horse of Paradise Heights, recent events have stacked the deck firmly against the One Eyed Jack of The Ace of Spades Nightclub. He is now a fading shadow of the man he once was. But the rescue of a girl on the mean streets of Paradise Heights thrusts Jack into a situation he has never faced before, untapped feelings stir, and a frozen heart begins to melt. But One Eyed Jacks aren't always lucky; someone wants Jack dead by Christmas. They say Christmas is a time for Angels...a time for miracles. Well Jack may have found his Angel. Now all he needs is a miracle... Written & Directed by Joe O'Byrne Reviews: Gritty urban drama that cements O’Byrne’s reputation as a first rate writer/director, and the new Jimmy McGovern. The Public Reviews *The play finished in The Public Reviews Top 50, out of over 2,000 shows they had reviewed that year. The dialogue is pungently, darkly witty, shot through with unforced pathos and flashes of real poetry. But it's also Paradise Heights. And even Charles Dickens wouldn't go there without someone riding shotgun. With a master storyteller’s skill, O’Byrne sets up all of the mechanisms that we know will damn and destroy his protagonist, then puts them into motion...Strawberry Jack find Joe O'Byrne at the top of his (considerable) game...5 Star Review Steve Balshaw, GrimmFest How does he keep doing it? Yet another classic piece of theatre from the mighty Joe O'Byrne. The Bolton based writer/director/actor unleashed his latest creation, Strawberry Jack: A Tale from Paradise Heights delivered yet another 5 star effort. More twists and turns than Tarantino, a good deal more originality than any Guy Ritchie geezer-fest, and comes straight from the heart. Brian Gorman, The Public Reviews
