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.
