Much of the theatre is hand -built by her.

                                              

The area with the purpose of Minack theatre is built in is already an astoundingly  beautiful place, with inconceivably dramatic cliffs plunging straight  into the ocean, and the property exceeding these rugged and wild, but sheltering  the theatre without a glitch.

It creates a wonderful landscape in support of acting to be  set on, surrounded by the rugged beauty of nature, but enclosed contained by  an intricately structured design. When you know all this, the choose of the  place makes discern, as Minack in Cornish process 'rocky place'. During the  construction itself, simply a number of stones and a wheelbarrow were lost to the  cliffs as well, which is impressive and more exactly providential.
