The Power of Imagination

Helston Theatre Company is delighted to present an enchanting evening of two captivating short plays, both centered on the theme of ‘imagination’.

Featured Plays

• Ernie’s Incredible Illucinations by Alan Ayckbourn
  This bright comedy follows Ernie Fraser, a young boy whose vivid daydreams have a surprising habit of turning into reality. Concerned about his “illucinations,” Ernie’s parents take him to see a doctor, leading to a series of hilarious and imaginative scenarios. Written in 1969, Ernie’s Incredible Illucinations is one of Ayckbourn’s most enduring works, beloved by audiences of all ages for its blend of humor and whimsy.

• The Perfectly Timed Death of an Imaginary Friend by Kieran Lynn
  This poignant play takes audiences on a heartfelt journey, exploring the complexities of childhood and the power of imagination. It poses profound questions about what parts of our childhood we should hold onto and what we should let go of. With its unique blend of humor and pathos, this play promises to be an unforgettable experience. (Presented by arrangement with Bloomsbury Publishing Plc.)
