A son et lumiere (a sound and light show) was held at St Peter and St Paul's Church in Great Missenden last month.
The evening was one of the events to celebrate the hundredth anniversary of the church's Binns Organ.
The church was full, with over 200 people attending to see and hear the story of the village and church and to hear the organ, played by Michael Bacon, an organist at The Church of King Charles the Martyr, Tunbridge Wells.
The Bishop of Buckingham, the Rt Revd Alan Wilson, along with Mary Saywood and Brenda Harris, narrated the story which was illustrated by a series of pictures and videos that took the audience through the establishment of Missenden Abbey, and the history of the church and the village.
Many students from the Misbourne School were actively involved in the preparation and delivery of the event, helping with poster design, lighting, sound and photography, and being part of the performance.
The photos, by Douglas, 17, from Misbourne School, show the event in full swing.
