Verona Lions Hall was the scene of a crime on March 26 when Partners in Crime of Inverary presented “The Maircroft Enigma” by Robert Lawton as a fundraiser for the Verona Lions. This was the first time the Lions hosted this kind of mystery/dinner theatre event and judging from the crowd, it will likely not be the last.
The cast included Verona resident Dick Miller as Brewster Worthing. Diners were invited to help solve the crime that took place in 2003 at the Maircroft Hotel in Torquay, a seaside resort in Devonshire where a plethora of strange, suspicious and potentially fatal happenings had recently occurred.
Vice-president of the Verona Lions, Louise Day, was thrilled with the turnout and said, “It's going really well and I can definitely see doing this again.” All the funds raised will go towards a number of community projects that the Verona Lions are undertaking in the community.
