The Kings of the Kilburn High Road
By Jimmy Murphy

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.
25 years later, only one – Jackie Flavin, makes it home 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.
