All flutes are invidually decorated with designs inspired by crop circles and features a unique dragon tone block. Every flute is as individual as a tree, with its own character.

Actors Reunited bring you an entertainment entitled A brace of one act comedies! “What shall we do with the body?” (by Rae Shirley) Miss Temple , a writer of popular detective novels, is penning her next blockbuster with the able assistance of her secretary, Miss Worthington. Suddenly, there's a knock at the door and out of a stormy night arrives a stranger. With twists and turns that will keep the audience guessing right up until the end, who is not quite what they seem, the ending will surprise you all ! This is followed by “Brenton v Brenton” (by David Tristram) What is the dark secret that embraces the Brenton family feud? Who is the mysterious Eddie? Why are Lana’s shoulder pads wider than the door? And just what was Deke Brenton doing down on the farm? All this, and more, is revealed in this outrageous spoof of American soaps and block buster mini series, set in the manic world of Chicago ’s biggest advertising agency.
