Murphy play visits Drogheda

LIVIN DRED THEATRE CO presents 'The Kings Of The Kilburn High Road' by Jimmy Murphy; directed by Padraic McIntyre.

In the mid-1970s a group of young men left their homes in the West of Ireland, took the boat out of Dublin Bay and sailed across the sea to England in the hope of making their fortunes and returning home. Twenty-five years later only one, Jackie Flavin, makes it home, but does so in a coffin. The Kings of the Kilburn High Road takes place on the day the winners and losers of the group meet up to drink to Jackie Flavin’s memory and looks at their lives, lost dreams and their place in the new Ireland.

A wonderful play full of humour and human sadness.

The cast is:

JAP Phelim Drew

GIT Malcolm Adams

SHAY Arthur Riordan

MAURTEEN Seamus O’Rourke

JOE Charlie Bonner
