(Aaron
McIlroy & Lisa Bobbert)
Put yourself in the hands of MacBob’s
master comedians Aaron and Lisa, as they navigate the rocky shoals and
hazardous terrain of life on the home front!
Family. The place where individuals are
nurtured, grown, treasured and driven crazy! It’s never been harder to run a
functional family. Everyone knows that only family members get to push the
buttons that send us round the bend! With this in mind, a special treat is in
store for comedy lovers, as Durban’s iconic stars of MacBob Productions, Aaron
McIlroy and Lisa Bobbert, present their latest musical comedy romp, Family Therapy, at the Elizabeth Sneddon
Theatre, on UKZN’s Howard College Campus (Durban), from March 4 to 15.
Yes, Aaron and Lisa are once again at the
top of their game, as they take you on a wild dive into the world of the
family, and investigate what makes them tick or explode. These comedic legends
boldly go where billions have been before, and hilariously investigate the do’s
and don’ts of living together in this strange arrangement we call family.
Family
Therapy guarantees to have you and your loved ones
singing along and screaming with laughter, not yelling at each other. Mayhem
prevails as the audience renews ties with MacBob’s’ classic gallery of loopy
principals, notably Bobbert’s overly assertive Charmaine, and her sorely
put-upon hubby, Bruce, along with several unforgettable newcomers to the scene
who will have you falling out of your seats.
Seasoned thespian and theatre critic, Barry
Meehan, reviewing a recent try-out run of the new musical comedy, found Family Therapy “Hugely entertaining,
with impeccable comedy timing, as Durban’s madcap couple poke fun (and a good
few truths) at families and their problems.
This laugh-a-minute, two-hour romp from this supremely talented twosome,
is their best show to date.”
