This March, we’re partnering with Smashed Window Community Theatre to host an open-air improvised retelling of one of Cornwall’s greatest legends.
This raucous production will see a trio of actors perform an entirely improvised take on ‘Tristan & Yseult’. It’s epic, energetic and sure to have you crying with tears of laughter (and perhaps a few of sorrow too)!
Performances will take place on Sunday 24th March at 11am and 2.30pm at Indian Queens Pit near St Columb Major. Performances are 1 hour 30 minutes with an interval.
This production is recommended for ages 8+.
Adult tickets are priced pay as you feel at £10, £12 and £15. Tickets for those aged 16 and under are priced at £5.
This is an outdoor production, so please bring a chair or blanket to sit on and dress for the weather!

A Scheduled Monument, Indian Queens Pit was constructed as a preaching pit by local villagers in 1850 within a disused mining openwork. It was traditionally used by the local Methodist Chapels from Indian Queens and Fraddon, as well as a temperance society. Today, it remains at the heart of the local community and regularly hosts fetes, concerts and plays.
This event has been made possible by funding from The National Lottery Heritage Fund, and we’re hugely grateful for its support.
