This month at the Minack
Roaring twenties meet Wildean wit
The Importance of Being Earnest is getting the OVO treatment.
Oscar Wilde's sharpest comedy, reimagined in the glitz and glamour of the 1920s, with a live on-stage band mashing up jazz-styled hits from RAYE, Madonna, Lizzo and Eminem. Plus, the women take centre stage — bold, funny, and firmly in charge.
"Exquisitely trivial" and "searchingly serious" as Wilde intended - but with more sequins.
21-24 September

Music at the Minack
Two generations, one unstoppable rhythm.
Ben Waters has spent decades electrifying stages with raw boogie-woogie energy, sharing the spotlight with Jerry Lee Lewis, Chuck Berry and The Rolling Stones. Now he's joined by son Tom Waters — mentored on tour from age eight, gifted a sax by The Rolling Stones' Bobby Keys, and a Royal Academy-trained saxophonist forging a stellar career of his own.
Father and son, decades of stagecraft meeting fresh brilliance. Don't miss it.

A phrase often used when working at the Minack is “part of the Minack family” and we do have lots of family that work together, however this has to be fairly unique.
Anne who is the longest serving employee at the theatre has 3 of her grandchildren working alongside her this season.
