Many Young Men of Twenty

Many Young Men of Twenty is a poignant yet humorous play exploring the Irish diaspora in the 1950s. Through a cast of colourful characters, it captures the heartache and hopes of a generation compelled to leave their homeland in search of better lives abroad. Keane's blend of comedy and tragedy offers a rich, reflective experience.

. A musical play dealing with emigration and the lack of jobs at home that forced people to leave their native Ireland for England. It describes the emigrants 'longing for home’ - 'Everyone is lonesome leaving home' - their annual homecomings and their return to jobs and places they disliked - 'back to their night shifts, an' filthy digs . with their long faces leanin' out o' the carriage windows with the thoughts of what's waitin' over'.
