Who are the twins?

In the play, there is a refers to the Donnely twins. They are the trouble makers and are blamed for the disappears of Yolland. Due to the fact we, as the audience, never see them it is difficult to believe they are real.

These twins could be a representation of the parish or entire Ireland. They are the rebellion that is stirring waiting for a moment to release themselves. The twins are someone for the British to blame for Yolland's disappears.

In America, we use suspect to identify someone in blame. However, maybe there is a lost in tanslation with "Donnelly twins." They could just be their names used to describe someone who commited a crime but has not been found.
