Squashbox Theatre - Secrets of the Hidden Realm

What if there was a parallel dimension where the giants, faeries, piskies and other magical creatures from Cornish stories really existed?

For centuries, a mysterious covert organisation has been investigating this ‘Hidden Realm’ from its top secret base above Poundland in Camborne, and rumour has it they are trying to create a portal between the worlds…

But the time for secrecy is over. Tonight we will open the archives, release the secret files, and learn the truth about the Hidden Realm – whatever the consequences!

‘Secrets of the Hidden Realm’ delves into the strange, dark and beguiling world of Cornish folklore, using a blend of storytelling, comedy and ingenious puppetry. It combines a deep reverence for the history and mythology of Cornwall with absurd humour and a dash of Cosmic Horror. (Imagine if ‘The X Files’ was set in Redruth, or Cthulhu appeared in Marazion…)

‘Secrets of the Hidden Realm’ is written and performed by Craig Johnson, Penzance-based actor, musician and puppeteer. Under the name Squashbox Theatre he has been creating marvellous, quirky and inventive family shows for over 18 years.

This is Squashbox Theatre’s first show for adults and older children.
