"The Quarry Players present John B. Keane's "The Chastitute" from November 27-December 2"

An Focal - University of Limerick Student Magazine - November 2000

"...The theatre hosts the Quarry Players production of John B Keane’s THE CHASTITUTE, directed by Michael Kearney. A Chastitute is a person without holy orders who has never laid down with a woman. A rustic celibate by force of circumstance peculiar to a countryside where the Catholic tradition of life long sexual abstemiousness is encouraged and free sex is absolutely taboo. John Bosco who hasn’t the makings of a decent sin in him, is a bachelor farmer and all he is searching for is a plain decent woman to share his life. He nearly got there a thousand times " but nearly never bulled a cow"."
