A Story of Lament, of Love, of Rebellion.

A Story of Pride & Glory .

An Irish Story.

Celtic Exodus tells the story of star-crossed lovers trapped by a family feud in the village of Kilturk in Ireland of the 1840s.

As famine descends on the nation the families of young Sean McDonagh and Siobhan Buckley struggle with survival in the face of crop failure, starvation, and merciless oppression by landlords and British Government agents.

The young lovers must hide their forbidden passion, yet find a way to somehow unite their clans in defiance of these challenging times.

Ultimately, the young lovers will be forced to join the hordes of Irish people who leave their beloved homeland in the first great wave of the Celtic Exodus.

Love songs, poetry, rousing ballads and epic choreography bring the story to life in a celebration of who we are, where we came from, and how in exile we shared our unique Irish culture with the rest of the world.

Written and Created by Brian Warfield

As leader and principal songwriter for the Wolfe Tones Brian’s career has spanned an incredible 60 years of sell-out arena tours in the USA, UK and at home in Ireland.

The band’s farewell tour wraps in late 2024 and Celtic Exodus is Brian’s invitation to bring 3 generations of Wolfe Tones fans to the theatre, where they can experience his finely honed storytelling skills in a new musical format, with much of the musical content adapted from the Wolfe Tones wildly popular back catalogue, including ‘A Great Hunger’, ‘Misty Foggy Dew’, ‘Thank God For America’ and ‘Ireland My Ireland’
