==Early life==
Robert Keeley was born in London as one of sixteen children, his father being a watchmaker. Keeley was an apprentice printer to Hansard, but dissatisfied with this career he joined a travelling acting company. He was at the Richmond Theatre in 1813 before moving to Norwich for four years and then to the West London Theatre.
He made his professional London debut at the Olympic Theatre in 1818 as Leporello in ''Don Giovanni in London'', based on Mozart's opera. In 1819 Keeley appeared at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, and played the original Jemmy Green in ''Tom and Jerry, or Life in London'' by William Thomas Moncrieff at the Adelphi Theatre during 1821–2. At the end of 1821 Keeley appeared at Sadler's Wells Theatre under Daniel Egerton, and in April 1822 he played Jerry in Pierce Egan's ''Life in London''.〔s:Keeley, Robert (DNB00) Knight, John Joseph ''Dictionary of National Biography'', 1885–1900, Volume 30 (''Wikisource'')〕
