About this event

Join Mythwalker for a spine-tingling retelling of the Cornish legend of Jan Tregeagle, inspired by the history, myths and landscapes of Lanhydrock.

Discover the legend of Jan Tregeagle in a specially created storytelling performance by Mythwalker.

Inspired by the history of Lanhydrock and its 17th-century estate steward, the story follows Tregeagle’s rise to power, his pursuit of the mysterious Anne Jeffries and his transformation into a figure of Cornish folklore.

Blending history, myth and local legend, this 30-minute performance brings one of Cornwall’s stories to life for families with children aged 8+.

Performances take place in the Servants’ Hall at 12pm, 1pm, 2pm, 3pm and 4pm. Each performance lasts around 30 minutes.
