Theatre Under the Stars

Guided Tour 26th Aug 2024 10:30am

This is a small group guided tour.  If you wish to book a general visit only, please visit our Theatre and Garden Visit page.

Join former Theatre Manager, Phil Jackson, to discover the dramatic history of the Minack Theatre.  Phil has been connected with the theatre all his life and knows more tales about it than anyone else.   Discover how the Minack was created by Rowena Cade and how it survived war and financial crisis to become world-famous.  Learn about the challenge of staging shows on a Cornish cliff and some of the unforeseen things that happen when nature decides to take a hand in the drama.

Discover more about the Minack.   Book on one of our special Guided Tours of the theatre.  Places on each tour are limited and you will be provided with a headset. 

Each tour will last about an hour.  Our tours include walking up and down long flights of steps around the theatre.  However, some of them can still be enjoyed by people with limited mobility.  If you have concerns about access or mobility, please contact our box office to check that this tour is suitable for your situation.

You are welcome to remain in the theatre after your tour, to explore on your own and visit the Rowena Cade Exhibition. You do not need to purchase an additional visit ticket!
