After three weeks our rehearsals are almost over (thank you for hosting us, ), and we're ready to move to the Minack to open this beautiful show. If you haven't already booked tickets, follow the link in the bio to ensure you don't miss out. This is a world premiere of the first stage adaptation of the award-winning novel 'Miss Benson's Beetle' by Rachel Joyce (author of 'The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry'). The story is funny, heartwarming, tear-jerking, and full of adventure. We can't wait to share it with you.
