Terrifying Chaos Unfolds in Falmouth: Hospital Staff Panto Heads to The Poly

The Royal Cornwall Hospitals Trust (RCHT) staff group “The Choughs” are back with their latest charity pantomime, The Phantom of the Operating Room. The performance will run for three nights at The Poly in Falmouth, with all ticket proceeds supporting St Petrocs and Cornwall Wildlife charities.

Performance Details

Set in Tehidy Hospital in a bygone era, the panto promises a mix of terrifying monsters, decaying undead, rats, and vampires, all set to horrifying sounds from the shadows. Expect inexplicable chaos that defies logic, making it an unforgettable evening of dark hilarity.

The show will run on the following dates:

• Wednesday, 19th February at 7:30pm
• Thursday, 20th February at 7:30pm
• Friday, 21st February at 7:30pm

Tickets are available at flexible prices of £10, £15, and £20. Please note that a £1 Poly Fund payment is added to each ticket, along with a 50p booking fee for online and phone bookings.

Not Your Average Hospital Drama

The Phantom of the Operating Room follows in the footsteps of last year’s successful spring performance, which drew playful reviews such as “I paid to see this” and the memorable note about “a great bar upstairs.”

Audiences aged 15 and over are advised due to some adult humour. However, even those unsure about attending are encouraged to support the cause by buying a ticket. After all, as the release teases: “Oh no there isn’t any good reason not to buy a ticket. Even if you don’t come.”

For a night of spooky fun that supports two important local charities, grab your tickets and prepare to be entertained.
