Set in Oweney’s barbershop, where the rooms to let above the shop offer refuge to a host of lonely hearts: a recently laid-off hotel night porter, an angry young artist, an orphan girl, a wounded old widower, a likeable bruiser, and the beautiful Maeve. All of them, in their various ways, fall under Oweney’s loving spell. A heartwarming new play from the author of The Wexford Trilogy and Calvacaders.
