ROY KEANE’S affection for dramatic gestures will be played out on stage tomorrow after his tantrum during the 2002 World Cup inspired Irish comedy writers to make him the tragic hero of a musical.
I Keano, subtitled He came, he saw, he went home, depicts the Manchester United and Ireland midfield player as a courageous Roman warrior who clashes with his earnest, stubborn general, Macartacus (a thinly disguised Mick McCarthy, then the Ireland manager). The show, which opens tomorrow at the Olympia Theatre, Dublin, was written by Arthur Matthews, who co-wrote Father Ted, and Michael Nugent.
Keane, whose character has songs entitled I Told You So and The Muppet Show, has not replied to invitations to see it. Michael Kennedy, Keane’s representative, said he was taking “no interest” in the show.
