Synopsis

An ordinary man is forced to confront both his own demons and the manifestation of the supernatural beyond his comprehension and control

Jeremy Furlong is a successful businessman, whose life has been carefully constructed from layer upon layer of lies.

That is until now, when he is confronted by the trapped poltergeist spirit of a dead boy in the squalid flat he using to have an affair.

The Passion of Jerome premiered at the Peacock stage of the Abbey Theatre in February 1999."A writer of frenetic energy and imagination."
