Marsh Methodists perform “T’Owd Maids Goas West”
IN 1952 the Marsh Methodists followed up their winning formula with “T’Owd Maids Goas West” in five acts, with the same writer and producer, the same four ladies in the title roles, and again scenery by Joseph Pighills.
Here are the cowboys involved, some of whom Mr Deakin identifies as Willie and Jack Feather, Stanley Ryder, Jesse Whitaker, Willie Shackleton, and his father and himself.
Jack Feather, third from the left, was probably wearing the hat he had been issued as a Chindit in the Second World War.
