The Hour of Before Nightfall

🗓Fri 16 Oct 2026 · 7:30 PM
📍Fowey

Based on the remarkable true story of Frederick Densham, this entertaining stage play brings to life the tale of an eccentric hermit who retreated to the remote Bodmin Moor village of Warleggan in 1931 and remained there until his death in 1953. The production moves at a brisk pace, weaving together the strangeness and humanity of a man who became a local legend. It's a piece of living Cornish history — a story rooted right here on the Moor that many will have heard whispered about but few know in full. Presented by Carn to Cove, this is a chance to catch a compelling piece of theatre with deep ties to our own landscape.
