The Invisible Monkey Kernow Chambers Players Sterts

Tuesday 22nd August at 6.30pm in the Sterts Studio.

Kernow Chamber Players is back for its 5th semi-annual tour!

Delightful family fun in the park as KCP bring to life David Crook’s script and Harriet Bushman’s music of The Invisible Monkey, a comedy-in-rhyme with music and dance for three speaking actors and a dancer/acrobat, directed by Tama Matheson.

In the story, lonely young Zach longs to have a pet of his own, but is forbidden by his cruel Aunt Hettie, whose only interest in small animals is for her nightly carnivorous culinary adventures: “Mice mushed up till nice and gooey/and mixed into a ratatouille”.

Wandering outside in despair, he meets a Pet Pedlar, with highly unusual pets for sale: a sillipede, a hurtle, a haterpillar, and strangest of all, an Invisible Monkey. Maybe the monkey is the answer to Zach’s dilemma, a pet that Aunt Hettie will never discover – or will it cause him even more trouble?
