The Young Wick Players formed the winning group at the first festival of arts and crafts to be held by Southwick and Fishersgate Community Association at the Community Centre on Saturday.

They achieved distinction by their presentation of Christopher Fry’s A Phoenix Too Frequent. The producer was Elizabeth Penney, who ably staged the piece with a cast of three – Betty Carpenter [Dynamene], Betty Gedge [Doto] and Ian Elliott [Tegeus-Chromis].

The adjudicator, Miss M. Parry, said “Costume and movement were excellent. I congratulate you on attempting a play of this kind.”
