TAUNTON THESPIANS PRESENT…
Flying Feathers by Derek Benfield
Directed by Ray Court
Join us at The Tacchi-Morris for our take on Derek Benfields 1987 farce, ‘Flying Feathers’.
When Chief Constable Henry Potterton and his sister arrive at the peaceful country house of their late, lamented brother Bernard, they are astonished to find several scantily clad ladies wandering about. It transpires that during Bernard’s visit to a religious commune, his housekeeper has turned the place into a “house of sin”. Her endeavours to hide the truth lead to a series of hilarious comings and goings involving a curious vicar and an accident-prone window cleaner. The result is comedy gold.
This amateur production of “Flying Feathers” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd.
