‘For Better, For Worse’ – Mountmellick all set for three-act comedy show this week

Mountmellick Macra Drama

Mountmellick Macra presents For Better, For Worse by Jimmy Keary, a laugh out loud three-act comedy on June 17, 18 and 19 in Mountmellick Macra hall at 8.15pm.

The club has been busy preparing for the comedy and everyone is looking forward to what promises to be a great night’s entertainment.

This is the second Jimmy Keary comedy the club has performed and Jimmy, a Westmeath native, travelled to meet the cast back in April.

The three acts are set around Gabriel Foley, played by John McEvoy, the recently married son of Aggie, played by Gemma Dunphy.

Himself and his new wife Chrissie, Rosemary O’Gorman, have not gotten off to the best start due to lots of interfering neighbours and in laws!

The laugh-out loud show is topped off by Helen Dempsey playing Miriam, the man eater and Larry Ryan, playing Liam, the hoodwinker.

 Mix in two gossiping widows (Aoife Fitzpatrick and Colette Cashin) their daughters (Amy Strong and Mairead McEvoy) and a Counsellor (Colin Fitzpatrick) who needs counselling himself and his secretary (Michele Curran) and you’re sure to be entertained.

The set has been built, the posters are up and the club is ready to welcome you to the Macra hall.

The show is produced by AC Reynolds who says: “I would be lost without her fantastic back stage team of Christopher Joyce, Andrew Dunne, Sharon Fitzpatrick and Mairead McEvoy”

The entry is €12 per adult and €10 for OAPs, and its pay on the door each night.
