A ‘veritable den of thieves’

Indeed it was a verita­


ble den o f thieves! U n d e r th e facade o f


respectability, living in the lu x u ry o f th e i r co u n try house on the proceeds of th e ir ill-gotten gains, each member of the household was a specialist in his own field of criminal activity. 'flu* father, dames Win­ te r (Keith Garside,*, was a


.IF and church warden but p r id e d h im s e l f on his "b re a k in g and e n te r in g ” techniques. His wife, Alice (('lain* Dakin), was by no means averse to a l i t t le light finger exercise her­ se lf and th e ir daughter. Fat (Sarah ( ’ashmore). had a passion fo r je w e l­ lery, other people’s! Even l h e m a id , d a net ( Su e C lem e n t). was receiving expert tu itio n in "sleight of hand" from this band of villains. Then shame is brought


on the family by th e ir son. IV te r (Michael Cowking), when he decides to go


straight, getting a job in a hank, despite being a first-


class forger of bank notes. Then there is more shock news when he announces lie is to marry a respect­ able g irl, Angela Freston (Angela Smith). Horror of horrors, she turns out to be the daughter of a police commissioner, dolm Fres­ ton (Pol) W r ig h t). However, the family are


united once more when it is discovered that Angela is an expert in the art of opening cocked safes her­ self and Peter can return from one side of the bank­ in g c o u n te r to “ c o u n t­ e r fe i t in g . " Sam dackson (Michael Dakin) can con- t in u e as t h e fa m i I y “ fe n ce ,” and th e v ic a r (Dave Raw) can absent- mindedly receive money, forged or o th erwise, for the church funds. The play was produced


by Kileen Wright, it was very nicely staged, and all members of the cast gave a good p e r fo rm a n ce to ensure another success by this local group.
