About the event

A perfect trip to kick off the summer, Minack theatre and Porthcurno beach!

Transport included leave Falmouth 10am The Moore, Penryn 10.10am The Bus stop on Campus  

It will roughly take 1hr to get there and we will be parking up at the Minack and walking to Porthcurno. This should be around a 10 minute walk. 

Starting with some time on the beach, followed by 2.30pm performance Northanger Abbey | Minack Theatre 

Make sure to bring a pack lunch and suitable clothing for the Cornish weather e.g. suncream/raincoat and something to sit on at the performance.  

Jane Austen’s lightest novel gets a 21st century makeover in this lively, irreverent satire on imagination and gothic romance.

Performed by just 3 actors, laughs are never far away in this tangled story of loves desired and unexpected. In this version, Cath’s story is given a fresh perspective that is fast moving and exuberantly playful, while asking big questions about personal freedom and choice.
