The Scarlet Pimpernel

With a fast-paced retelling of The Scarlet Pimpernel - revolution, romance and razor-sharp comedy are guaranteed. IntoBodmin are a proud partner in supporting this show in coming to Cardinham Woods. France is burning, the guillotine is busy, and Marguerite Blakeney is stuck in England with an idiot husband, a man so relentlessly foolish, it’s starting to feel strategic…However when ruthless revolutionary Chauvelin – head of the French Republic's Committee of Public Safety, with a very loose grip on the word “safety” – threatens her brother’s life, Marguerite is dragged into a world of spies, secrets and very sharp blades. Will she betray the mysterious Scarlet Pimpernel, or let her brother face the guillotine. What do you do when every choice costs you the person you love? Three actors tear through revolutions, opera houses, seedy Dover pubs and glittering ballrooms using nothing but a mountain of wigs and sheer nerve. Expect quick-fire gags, high-octane multi-rolling in this sharply modern, joyously theatrical retelling of Baroness Orczy’s swashbuckling classic. IntoBodmin have been producing Theatre in the Woods for the last 5 years, bringing you the opportunity to experience the finest performances Cornwall has to offer in Bodmin's very own National Forest. **VIP TICKETS ON SALE NOW ** NEW for this year's Theatre in the Woods show.

Music of Joan Baez

Concessions (advance only) £15 Dates About this event One of the UK’s high-rising songwriters Sarah Yeo, performs material in her own “beautiful voice” (BBC) from Joan’s early career from the first recording, ‘Harvard Square’ and onward through her lengthy journey to date, telling pivotalstories and singing key songs from the Newport Festival days, her years in Nashville, activism around the world, her relationship both on and off the stage with Bob Dylan, and her love of recording just great songs. The set list takes note of the current political climate and includes self penned songs ‘Diamonds and Rust’, ‘The Winds of the Old Days’, Dylan greats such as ‘Love Is Just A Four Letter Word’, ‘There But For Fortune’, ‘Farewell Angelina’ and the wonderful catalogue from songwriters Stevie Wonder, PhilOchs, Janis Ian and not forgetting the early Folk covers, ‘The Banks of the Ohio’, ‘House of the Rising Sun’ and many more hits. Sarah, a recent finalist in the ‘International Songwriting Competition’, also delves into the Spanish language repertoire Joan loved so much. Sarah’s ‘warm rich voice’ with sweet higher notes, lends itself perfectly for this special evening of songs and stories. As Sarah learns more about Miss Baez’s life and career, she feels she can relate to her in many ways, making the project a very personal, interesting and inspiring experience.

Mixed Media Workshop

The first part of the workshop will be spent drawing around St Ives Harbour, exploring various abstract approaches to capture different elements of the scene. Back in the studio, you will be shown how to extract a composition from your drawings to develop into a fresh mixed-media abstract piece. Using a combination of drawing, collage and acrylic paint, you’ll experiment with layering, editing and reworking your ideas, discovering new ways to build a composition that feel expressive and individual.

More about Lower Green

Cornwall, England

Lower Green sits quietly in Cornwall with a charm that feels like it was borrowed from an old postcard. There isn't much going on right now, but the village shop usually hosts a bit of chatter and the community hall keeps its doors open for local gatherings when the mood takes us. It is a place where you can sit on your own front steps and watch the clouds drift by without needing to book a ticket first. When the season turns, expect markets and fairs to appear just as naturally as the rain stops.
