About this book

An off-kilter, high-energy, form-pushing play about what pro-wrestling and politics have in common. JERICHO asks big questions in weird ways, like what can a pop-culture journalist do to stop the world burning down?

MALAPROP Theatre's play JERICHO was first performed at Bewley's Cafe Theatre, Dublin, in February 2017. It was reworked and performed at Underbelly as part of Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2018, and at VAULT Festival, London, in February 2019.

ENTRANCES
J presses a button and we hear the kind of grandiose music you might hear when a procession enters a church. He can make amicable short or non-verbal responses to M throughout.
M enters looking dubious. She indicates to J to cut the music.
M
Ehm –
Yeah.
But –
No, though?
I see what you mean –
I mean, I see where you’re coming from –
But, when I said ‘entrance’ –
I didn’t mean that kind of –
I meant more of a, y’know, rousing, charged –
d’yaknowwhatImean?
J indicates he knows what M means.
Okay!
Cool!
Let’s go!
M exits. J plays a song from a musical. M re-enters with more enthusiasm than last time, but it’s not quite right. Again, she indicates to cut the music.
Yes, yes, okay –
I see what you did there –
Yeah –
Charged, rousing music –
Yes, I get it –
And I know you love that musical –
Thanks, yeah –
But if we could go less musical-y and recognisable, that’d be great –
Just more energetic and, like –
J indicates again that he knows what M means.
Okay.
Cool.
Right.
M exits once again. J plays dance music. M re-enters and really gives this song a go, but it’s just not what she’s looking for. She indicates to J to stop the music.
Yeah, yeah –
I mean –
Absolutely bangin’ tune –
No doubt about that –
But a bit too –
Let’s go less ‘club’ and more ‘arena’, y’know?
J indicates that this time he really knows what M means.
And, if you could, would you mind adding a bit of crowd noise?
I just need a bit of –
Not that you guys aren’t great, it’s just –
I need a bit of a lift, y’know?
Great, thanks.
THIS IS JERICHO
M exits. J plays ‘Break the Walls Down’ by Fozzy.
M enters triumphantly.
M
WELCOME....
