Help! I think I’m a Nationalist!

A new one man comedy show about identity, second homes, nationalism, xenophobia and bagpipes. Liskerrett Community Centre, Saturday 15th October at 7.30pm. Tickets £10 from the Carn to Cove website.
Cornwall is at a tipping point. House prices soar, the population shifts, tensions rise. Between Facebook spats, country lane stand-offs and rants down the pub, nobody’s really talking, and fewer are listening.
Seamas is confused. He is desperately trying to understand. He’s watched a wave of gentrification sweep through his rural hometown. There’s nowhere to live, yet second homes stand empty. He wishes Cornwall was more welcoming and inclusive, yet watches “up country” money sow division and suspicion.
Could closing borders and nationalism be the answer? Where’s the line between pride and power? What happens when it all goes too far? Seamas needs help. He needs your help.
Suitable for audiences aged 12+
