The Kings of the Kilburn High Road, written by acclaimed Irish playwright Jimmy Murphy, is a powerful drama interwoven with moments of light comedy, offering a poignant exploration of friendship, identity, and the immigrant experience that continues to captivate audiences today.

In the mid ’70s 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 that the winners and losers of the group meet up to drink to Jackie’s memory and look at their lives, lost dreams and their place in the new Ireland.

Starring Peadar Conway, Gerry Farrell, Brian Gallagher, Michael McLoughlin, and Niall Brewster.
