First Flight

Gordon Taylor

It's 1921!  What did Mr Marsden think about an aeroplane landing in his grounds? A fun and informative event for the whole family to enjoy.

Isel Park

James Marsden and his wife Mary live at Isel House. Mr Marsden hated new-fangled things such as motor cars. Mr Marsden wouldn&#x27;t even answer the telephone. He used to make his cook, Mrs Gates, do that!Local entrepreneur Thomas Newman, always wanted to be the first man to land in an aeroplane at Nelson so he charted one! It took off from Wellington on 11 November 1921. Running low on fuel it landed in Marsden&#x27;s paddock.So, what did Mr Marsden and the household think of that? Histrionics will be performing this scene under Covid red or orange phase (with vaccine passes) at Isel Park on 23rd April running at 11.00, 12.30 and 2.00. and we would like to invite you to be involved.We hope that the audience will enjoy this fun and informative performance for the whole family, bring a picnic, maybe dress in period costume and enjoy the park and beautiful gardens too.
