      Set in a contemporary Dublin pub, this adaptation of a classic play introduces a Nigerian asylum-seeker as the lead character, reflecting on modern themes of race and immigration in Ireland. Co-authored by Bisi Adigun, the artistic director of Ireland's first African theater company, and acclaimed novelist Roddy Doyle, the production emphasizes intercultural collaboration. Originally performed at Dublin's Abbey Theater in 2007, its popularity led to a revival in 2009, showcasing its relevance and resonance with contemporary audiences.
