16 May 13 The Minack Coast

Thu, 16 May 13

Felicity Evans visits the Minack Theatre at Porthcurno, in the far west of Cornwall. Built into the rocky cliffs overlooking the sea, the theatre was planned, built and financed by one determined¹ woman - Rowena Cade. Local storyteller Mark Harandon has researched and re-created the character of Billy Rawlings, Cade's gardener, who worked for her for 40 years and helped to build the theatre. Mark, as Billy, leads Felicity around the theatre telling stories collected from the family and people who knew him, and reminiscing about how the theatre was built. Felicity goes on to explore the surrounding coastline, visiting the Portcurno Telegraph Museum, the Logan Rock and spotting some Cornish choughs, nesting on the craggy cliffs.
