Flying Feathers a comedy
written by Derek Benfield
When Chief Constable Henry Potterton and his sister
Sarah visit Dingle Farm, the home of their recently
deceased brother, they are greeted (much to their
surprise) by a ‘housekeeper’ they’ve never met and
four young ladies who’s scanty clothing is hardly
suitable for a farm!
The housekeeper, Mrs Winthrop, is equally surprised
to see the Chief Constable and much comic confusion
arises until she finally understands, to her dismay,
who he is and why he’s arrived on the doorstep. The
plot thickens when a vicar arrives (but is he who he
says he is?) closely followed by a solicitor on a
horse! And what has happened to the window cleaner?
Flying Feathers is a
beautifully written farce with twists and turns
throughout the script. Just as you think you’ve
worked out what’s going on and who everyone is,
another plot twist
appears!

Chinnor
Players were formed during the sixties and have
been entertaining the local population ever
since.
The Players normally put on
three shows each year, the first a Pantomime
usually in February followed by a Spring
Production and an Autumn production.
Our group is friendly one with
members from various backgrounds all with a
mutual interest. Like
all groups we need new blood, so if you fancy a
walk on part, a small speaking part, the lead
role or something in between please contact us
and come along and meet some of the gang.
Putting on a production requires various skills
from numerous people and we are also looking for
people to help with or learn the various aspects
of the 'behind the scenes' work. Set
building, lighting, sound, make up, props,
costumes, web site, etc. etc.
If you would like to get
involved, even if it's only occasionally please
do get in touch. Come along and join our
friendly team of actors and crew.
