When my family told me " You have to visit the Minack Theatre" and showed me photos of it, like the one below, it didn't look very appealing to me. It's the shot everyone takes when they enter the site. Not wanting to be rude to my family, "Ok, I'll see what my schedule and weather is like during my stay in Cornwall"
Visit the Minack Theatre at last
After a few castle hopping, one day I figured I'd do something different, and decided to check out the Minack Theatre. It's located at Porthcurno which is at the very south western tip of UK accessible by small country roads, and a rather steep and winding drive up to the cliff top. The drive here was an experience in itself.
Just to give you some idea, the Minack Theatre is an outdoor theatre built by hand tools, on a cliff right next to the sea. The photo above was taken at the entrance, that's the red dot at the top of this layout plan below. The garden and the seats are built in the cliff, and the stage is further down towards the sea. I don't know how deep the drop is from top to bottom, but the internet says there are 90 steps. I didn't count, but that sounds about right.
