Description:
We were a folk play group based in March, Cambridgeshire and we performed a folk play in the town to raise money for local charities. Our play was one written by Mike Herring and performed by members of the Peterborough Folk Club in the winters of 1968 and 1969. The script included some words from an old play that was featured in a local newspaper in 1902.
