In John Bull's Other Island, press notes state, "best friends and business partners, Broadbent (Reg Rogers) and Doyle (Marc Vietor), journey back to Doyle's Irish hometown to buy up land to develop. What they don't count on is the power of the locals, particularly Nora Reilly (Charlotte Parry) and the defrocked priest, Keegan (Daniel Jenkins), who talks to grasshoppers. In fact, the entire town is full of extraordinary characters who conspire to turn this business trip into a hysterical life-changing weekend for all concerned, fueled by plenty of Potcheen."

The new season will continue May 24 with Major Barbara, June 21 with Village Wooing, July 19 with Candida, Sept. 27 with Man and Superman, Oct. 25 with Cap't Brassbound's Conversion, Nov. 22 with How He Lied to Her Husband and Dec. 20 with Heartbreak House.
