The Stuns'ls Candle-lit Concert - Wheal Martyn Clay Works
Born from the salt, sweat and occasional chaos of Cornish Pilot Gig rowing, Stuns’ls Shanty Group was formed from the rowing clubs of Mevagissey, Charlestown and Truro.
The name comes from one of our earliest songs, Old Maui. A stuns’l (studding sail) is an extra sail set by a square-rigged ship to catch the faintest breeze and squeeze out a little more speed. It seemed a fitting name for a bunch of rowers who figured that if we could pull together on the water, we could probably sing together on dry land too.
What started as a few voices raised after training sessions and regattas has grown into a harmony-loving crew with a passion for sea shanties, Cornish folk songs and a good old-fashioned singalong.
As well as an opportunity to experience some fantastic Cornish music, this event will be supporting the charitable work of Wheal Martyn Trust (Charity no. 1001838), with money raised from ticket sales contributing to our fundraising.
Time: Doors open at 6.30pm, performance starts at 7.00pm
Price: £10.00 - £15.00 per person (age 12 and under free)
Optional extra: Pre-ordered pasties £6.95
Contact: info@wheal-martyn.comPlease note that music night tickets are non-refundable.

Dick Whittington & His Mousehole Cat - Hall For Cornwall
Cornwall’s festive family tradition continues in 2026 with Dick Whittington & His Mousehole Cat, featuring a golden blend of songs, smiles, warmth and wonder in the South West’s biggest homegrown pantomime.
Get set for an enduring tale of friendship, fortune and fame from Cornwall Playhouse Productions – the powerhouse behind Peter Pan, Jack And The Beanstalk, and Aladdin.
Join local lad Dick Whittington, who dares to dream of a brighter future. Together with his trusty cat companion, our hopeful hero sets out on a quest for the land paved with gold. Will our dynamic duo strike it rich? Will a dastardly rat derail their plans? Will the gang ever make it home to Cornwall? Gather your tribe and settle in for this all-singing, all-dancing, unmissable treat for all the family.
Leading the laughs as our Dame? None other than Kernow King himself, Edward Rowe, pulling up his bloomers once more after bringing the house down as Widow Twerkey in last year’s Aladdin. This time he’s Wednesday Whittington – Dick’s formidable mum, a savvy Cornish businesswoman with a rat-catching empire and her sights set firmly on the bright lights of London.
Plus, the creative team behind last year’s Aladdin are back – and now with national Panto award nominations to their name. Nick Evans directs, with Richard Healey and Edward Rowe on writing duties, and Jevan Howard-Jones brings the choreography. Teaming up once again with HfC‘s own Cornwall Playhouse Productions team, they’re building on a run of critically acclaimed Christmas shows – so you know you’re in for something seriously special.

Dick Whittington & His Mousehole Cat - Hall For Cornwall
Cornwall’s festive family tradition continues in 2026 with Dick Whittington & His Mousehole Cat, featuring a golden blend of songs, smiles, warmth and wonder in the South West’s biggest homegrown pantomime.
Get set for an enduring tale of friendship, fortune and fame from Cornwall Playhouse Productions – the powerhouse behind Peter Pan, Jack And The Beanstalk, and Aladdin.
Join local lad Dick Whittington, who dares to dream of a brighter future. Together with his trusty cat companion, our hopeful hero sets out on a quest for the land paved with gold. Will our dynamic duo strike it rich? Will a dastardly rat derail their plans? Will the gang ever make it home to Cornwall? Gather your tribe and settle in for this all-singing, all-dancing, unmissable treat for all the family.
Leading the laughs as our Dame? None other than Kernow King himself, Edward Rowe, pulling up his bloomers once more after bringing the house down as Widow Twerkey in last year’s Aladdin. This time he’s Wednesday Whittington – Dick’s formidable mum, a savvy Cornish businesswoman with a rat-catching empire and her sights set firmly on the bright lights of London.
Plus, the creative team behind last year’s Aladdin are back – and now with national Panto award nominations to their name. Nick Evans directs, with Richard Healey and Edward Rowe on writing duties, and Jevan Howard-Jones brings the choreography. Teaming up once again with HfC‘s own Cornwall Playhouse Productions team, they’re building on a run of critically acclaimed Christmas shows – so you know you’re in for something seriously special.
