Story · Minack Theatre

You're standing at the Minack Theatre in Porthcurno, about four miles from Land's End in Cornwall. Take a look down. This is an open-air theatre, built above a gully, with a granite outcrop jutting right out into the sea. Its Cornish name, Gwariva Veynek, means something like 'theatre abounding in stones'. Fair enough, right?
