title	The Dove Players do Puss in Boots, Occold, Suffolk - 13th January 2024
intro	It's the culmination of four months' rehearsal for the band and even longer for the cast as the Dove Players' production of Puss in Boots finally happens in Occold's village hall. For the first time the entire family is in on it: Isobel is playing Marjory Daws, Harry's playing the Chamberlain, Fred's in the panto band on flute, and somehow Nosher's on drums, with a first-ever live performance. The first 11 photos are Isobel's contribution.
