We have a lot going on here at WoC HQ, including the final stages of our rebranding. Our brand new website will launch in the spring and we’ll have a new look magazine for the next edition exciting times ahead!

The Easter holidays are coming up and our Easter section is packed with activities for the whole family to enjoy. Plus we have everything from the Tate St Ives reopening to live music at Trebah Amphitheatre.

The Minack Theatre has a brilliant new programme for 2017, including their own professional production of Goodnight Mister Tom running from 4th - 13th April featuring a fabulous Cornish cast and Minack Youth Theatre. Looking at our stunning front cover, this should definitely be on your spring to do list.

Live at Newquay Dramatic Society presents

Crime on Goat Island

By Ugo Betti Directed by David Faulkner

23rd/24th/25th/30th/31st March/1st April 2017 8.00 pm Tickets £10/£9 CRIME ON GOAT ISLAND is a fascinating play which can be viewed on more than one level.

On the surface it is a haunting, psychological thriller.

Three women live alone in self-imposed exile. Until a wandering libertine appears and convinces them that ‘’a little sin’’ would be good for them.

Dig a little deeper and you find yourself in the self-imposed purgatory of Goat Island.

How did they get there? And who is the young man?

Is he an Angel or is he the Devil? But what is the Crime?
