Peer Gynt - Miracle Theatre

Miracle Theatre bring their magical twist and love of laughter to the classic story of Peer Gynt. Young Peer is a lazy dreamer, who misinterprets Shakespeare’s advice “To thine own self be true” to mean “Look after number one”! He chases after riches and pleasure and lives a life of moral failure and endless excuses. Surely, he will come to no good? Loosely based on Ibsen’s epic comedy, this famous morality tale is perfect material for Miracle Theatre’s highly visual style - physical, funny, surreal and deeply human - a journey through the dream-like world of Norse mythology, peopled with cranky characters, trolls and other bizarre creatures – a comedy of terrors! Think, Fungus the Bogeyman meets Dr Faustus! PERFORMANCE INFORMATION Running Time: 2 hours 20 minutes, including 20 minute interval ABOUT THE COMPANY Miracle Theatre is Cornwall’s longest-established professional theatre company and one of the South West’s most distinctive voices. Miracle Theatre is renowned for its unique blend of offbeat humour, playful charm, visually striking performances, and inventive storytelling, making each production a distinctive experience. “For over 30 years, Miracle has been bringing its summer touring productions to Sterts. The visit is always one of the highlights of our season: a well-proportioned auditorium, great technical back-up, an enthusiastic audience and protection from the elements! What more could we ask for?” - Bill Scott, Founder and Artistic Director of Miracle Theatre ABOUT STERTS Originally a pig farm, Sterts is a four acre site where nature and creativity collide and is home to the Barn Theatre (400 seats), multi-purpose Sturrock Studio (50-70 seats) and Community Hub.

"TELL ME EVERYTHING, HOLMES" It’s 1906-the Golden Age of Magic. The Masked Magician bestrides London’s world of Magic like a colossus, UNTIL...one night, in mid-performance, the Magician vanishes. Dead? Kidnapped? In hiding? After a month Scotland Yard is baffled (obviously) and call in Sherlock Holmes to solve the mystery of the Masked Magician’s disappearance. Holmes (with an excitable Watson in tow) plunges into the secret world of Edwardian Magic only to find that the Masked Magician’s identity is Magic's best kept secret. As they question the Magician‘s peers (seeing a lot of Magic), the mystery of his fate deepens. As they unravel clue after clue, Holmes comes to share Watson’s wonder and discovers that it can sit alongside his logical outlook. When Holmes finally uncovers the startling and surprising secrets of the Masked Magician he, Watson and the audience have to decide... ...are some mysteries best left as... mysteries!

Widdershins - David Mynne

WIDDERSHINS An exciting original work, scripted specifically for David Mynne, by renowned writer Carl Grose and directed by Olivier Award winner Simon Harvey. "Three times round the circleAnd faerie-land beginsThree times round the wrong wayAnd call it widdershins" - Old Cornish Nursery Rhyme ABOUT THE SHOW Welcome to WIDDERSHINS: a long-forgotten village buried deep in a dark, wild corner of Cornwall. Here, Bob Droll (local raconteur, folklore enthusiast and village-hall caretaker) will take you on a tour of a place where mystery lurks about every corner. You won’t believe the shocking tales of poor 'Pity Me' Jose; or of Cryer Bledstone, the Sea Captain afraid of death! And then there's Sci-Fi Sally, desperate to leave this world for life beyond the stars... But beware. The deeper Bob leads you into his forest of far-fetched fables, the more lost you might get. Widdershins. Tis hard to find but even harder to leave... Expect stories told with a sting, poetry cracked and darkly comic, unforgettable characters and physical theatre, alongside the usual irreverence, wit and silliness. It will be dark, delirious and delightful. Under Milk Wood-ish sort of... only way, waayyy weirder! Widdershins is an exciting original work, scripted specifically for David, by renowned writer Carl Grose and directed by Olivier Award winner Simon Harvey.

CAMP Theatre Company- The Farndale Avenue Housing Estate Townswomen's Dramatic Society Murder Myster

Three decades before The Play That Goes Wrong opened on the London stage there was The Farndale Avenue Housing Estate Townswomen’s Guild Dramatic Society Murder Mystery. Mrs Reece, doyenne of the F.A.H.E.T.G. Dramatic Society sometimes thinks her shows are jinxed compared to productions s he has seen at the Old Vic and Stratford-upon-Avon (“of course, they’re not as adventurous as us”). For some inexplicable reason lighting and sound cues are sometimes misplaced, lines are forgotten and there was that unfortunate time when the set collapsed; at least the Stage Manager is now out of Intensive Care. Tonight’s production, though – the self penned Murder At Checkmate Manor – promises to be a triumph. With a cast of five, some of whom have acted before, the plot is a real cracker. Will Lady Bishop survive the night? Have Colonel and Mrs King made a wrong move? What fate awaits Mrs Castle the cook? And did Pawn the Butler really do it? Throw in a delicious recipe for Lemon Souffle, a Fashion Show featuring the perennial winner of the Miss Farndale Beauty Competition plus a Murder Mystery Quiz with a prize for lucky audience member and the evening is likely to linger long in the memory. What could possibly go wrong? ABOUT THE COMPANY Camp Theatre is a Community Theatre Company that was founded in 1994 and has just performed its 75th Production. The company has toured the South West regularly since 2011 and has donated more than £75,000 to a wide range of local, national and international charities.
