Perthi Kov (Cornish for ‘remember’) is a Redruth-based community group that creates immersive, site-specific theatre walks and events. The group was originally formed to research, write and produce ‘Until the Day Break’ (May 2017) a series of story walks, which brought together professional and community-based researchers, writers, actors, musicians, and theatre makers to celebrate the extraordinary lives of some of the men, women, and children buried in the historic St Euny churchyards, in Redruth, Cornwall.
Our work fuses historical research and imaginative response to bring the past to life for the present.
