Kernow King Says ‘Join The Poly!’
Cornwall’s leading actor, writer, and comedian, Edward Rowe (Kernow King), is urging the local community to support The Poly by joining its membership scheme.
The Poly, heading towards its 200th anniversary in 2033, is a much-loved and important part of Cornwall’s history and cultural scene. The multi-purpose arts centre presents a jam-packed programme of theatre events, cinema screenings, live music, comedy, talks, exhibitions and creative workshops throughout the year. In addition, it houses a state-of-the-art pottery studio, a café/bar, guild makers shop and the Falmouth History Archive.
Becoming a Poly member helps keep the venue open for the community and offers the opportunity to enjoy a range of savings on films, selected events and in the café.
Ed, a passionate advocate for Cornish culture and heritage, is a familiar face at The Poly – having performed on the venue’s stage and appeared on film (including in the BAFTA-winning film Bait). In a heartfelt appeal, he says:
“We’re asking you to not only buy a ticket, buy a membership as well. For just £35 a year, that’s £3 a month, your membership gets you one free ticket a year, discounts on films and discounts on the café. Fantastic!”
As well as the savings on offer, membership also offers exhibition opportunities for artists and a chance to have a genuine say in The Poly’s future direction through its AGM.
Membership fees are: Individual: £35, Joint: £60, Student / IRO Benefits: £15.
Sign up today via The Poly’s website www.thepoly.org, in person, or by calling the box office on 01326 319461.
