Davenham Players present The Farndale Avenue Housing Estate Townswomen’s Guild Dramatic Society’s Murder Mystery.

A comedy by David McGillivay and Walter Zerlin Jnr directed by Graham Hough.

Every drama group has experience the horrors of what can go wrong on the night and the ladies of the F.A.H.E.T.G. Dramatic Society are no different, with the possible exception that almost everything that could happen does, unfortunately, happen. The scenery collapses, cues are missed, lines forgotten, and the sound effects takes on a strange life of its own at times as the ladies present their ambitions evening’s entertainment – the cunning whodunit. “Murder at Checkmate Manor”. And just in case the audience should get bored there’s a Fashion Show and a Murder Mystery Quiz complete with prize. The crunch comes in the denouement when the “murderer”, about to be revealed has to rush home to bandage up an injured daughter. But Mrs Reece, doyenne of the group, rises above the slings and arrows of outrageous dramatics to save the situation and provide the final inventive twist.
