Full house as ‘Family Business’ premiers in Glenwood

THERE was a full house at the Elizabeth Sneddon Theatre in Glenwood yesterday, April 13, for the premier of Family Business, the McIlroy family’s latest production.

Berea Mail stopped by to take a few photos of the audience members ahead of the show, which did not disappoint – as the McIlroy’s delivered a truly hilarious performance.

There is no mafia, no cigar-smoking Godfather, fast cars or suitcases of cash – just fun for the whole family by the whole McIlroy family – Aaron, Lisa, Kaylee, Fiona and Grace.
