Rebel Roots Theatre Company: Family First

The Merrow family has owned and operated ‘Balor Bar’ for generations. Known for its warm atmosphere, hearty laughter, and the best stout in the county, the pub is more than a business – it’s a cherished family tradition.

At the helm of Balor Bar are Malachy and Lizzie Merrow, a spirited couple whose love for their pub is only rivalled by their love for their three children: Conor, Keira and Maeve. The pair have always envisioned passing the bar down to their kids, keeping their legacy alive. However, not everyone is on board.

Through lively scene filled with song, dance and stories of old, ‘Family First’ explores themes of family, tradition and self-discovery.
