“I absolutely adored it. Great laughs but also very touching in places. A great night. I am telling everyone I meet not to miss it”
-Rory Cowan, Mrs Brown’s Boys.

Based on John B. Keane’s best-selling book: Letters of a Love-Hungry Farmer, and adapted for the stage by Des Keogh, one of Ireland's foremost actors and entertainers, the show has been one of the most popular shows in Ireland and abroad in the last decade and continues to find new audiences. It tells the story of John Bosco McLane, a bachelor of indeterminate age and according to his own assessment: ‘past his best’ and evidently still a virgin. McLane’s amorous adventures range from the hilarious to the pitiful. John B. Keane is the legendary author of such classics as Sive, The Field and Big Maggie
