While no-one is quite sure where it is, the village of Pocket nestles on a babbling brook between gently rolling hills – it is a rural idyll like so many villages across the breadth and depth of the UK. With its church, shop, and its pub ‘The Crippled Pigeon’, it has all the facilities to keep the place vibrant. Some of its residents are less idyllic of course and there are many stories of dark deeds and country ways.

For the village hall show the residents who make up the Pocket Choral Society – the vicar, publican, farmer and shopkeeper – bring tales of the village as an extra dimension to the the performance.
