What the f*** is ‘hiraeth’? Torch Theatre Company Charles Hawtrey was one of the leading lights of the Carry On film franchise. Bubbly, energetic and extremely funny Hawtrey was one of the best known comedy actors of the 40s, 50s and 60s, but as his career waned, his behaviour became more drunken, promiscuous and eccentric, losing him many friends in an age when male homosexuality in Britain was illegal and punishable by a prison sentence. This one man show regales stories of 50 years in the film industry, his hilarious run ins with Kenneth Williams and his disdain of the Carry On producers as well as a complex relationship with his mother. Written by Dave Ainsworth, directed by Peter Doran and performed by Jamie Rees, Oh Hello has received four and five star reviews from its recent tour and won the prestigious Laurel Award at last year’s Edinburgh Fringe. Roedd Charles Hawtrey yn un o hoelion wyth y ffilmiau Carry On. Dyn afieithus, egnïol a doniol dros ben oedd Hawtrey, ac un o actorion comedi mwyaf adnabyddus y 40au, y 50au a’r 60au, ond fel yr âi ei yrfa ar drai aeth i ymddwyn yn fwyfwy meddw, ‘parod ei gymwynas’ a rhyfedd, a cholli gan hynny lawer o ffrindiau mewn oes pan oedd gwrywgydiaeth ym Mhrydain yn anghyfreithlon ac â chosb dedfryd carchar. £12.50, Reductions £10.50 Neontopia and Wales Millennium Centre presents: HEFIN knows he’s adopted just not where from.

While Clarissa Dalloway prepares a party in Westminster, Septimus Smith is diagnosed with shell-shock, their memories and dreams magically intertwining with those of 15 other desperate souls, this hot blue day in June. Conjuring the hopes and regrets of middle - and upper-class London, this adaptation of Virginia Woolf’s celebrated map of hearts, minds and memories offers a compellingly feminine response to the aftermath of the First World War. The Revlon Girl 7 DRAMA DRAMA Inspire Me / Fy doliaeth YsbryInspire Me / Fy Ysbrydoliaeth ‘The Revlon Girl’ is an original play based on the events surrounding the Aberfan Disaster of 1966. Written by Neil Anthony Docking (Casualty, Emmerdale), directed by Maxine Evans (Stella, Call The Midwife) and set 8 months after the tragedy, the play draws on the real life story of a small group of bereaved mothers who meet every Tuesday above a local hotel to talk, cry and even laugh (without feeling guilty). Written and directed by Elton Townend Jones (Christmas Gothic, The Unremarkable Death of Marilyn Monroe). Performed by Rebecca Vaughan (Jane Eyre, Female Gothic, I, Elizabeth, Austen’s Women). At one of their meetings, the women looked at each other and realised how much they had let themselves go. Afraid that people would think them frivolous, they secretly arranged for a representative from Revlon to come and give a talk on beauty tips. The action takes place on a rainy Tuesday night in a room above the Aberfan Hotel. 1923: Mae’r Rhyfel ar ben. Tra mae Clarissa Dalloway yn hwylio parti yn Westminster, ceir bod siel-syfrdandod ar Septimus Smith ac mae eu hatgofion a’u breuddwydion yn cyd-weu’n hudol ag atgofion a breuddwydion pymtheg enaid cwbl wahanol, ar y diwrnod poeth glas hwn ym mis Mehefin.

Macbeth Director’s Cut Apocalypso Originally directed by Nigel Charnock for Volcano in 1999, this furious two-hander takes the bloodiest and most intense of Shakespeare’s plays and strips it bare of its regal cushioning, evoking the tawdry domestic world of contemporary serial killers in an erotic and violent theatrical assault on the senses. It is lyrical, apocalyptic, extreme and dangerous. An immersive horror-comedy experience like no other. “Like seeing Tarantino on stage” What’s On I Volcano ym 1999 dan gyfarwyddyd Nigel Charnock roedd y ddrama hon yn wreiddiol, drama ffyrnig i ddau sy’n codi’r fwyaf gwaedlyd a’r ddwysaf o ddramâu Shakespeare ac yn tynnu oddi arni ei phlisgyn brenhinol i ddeffro byd aelwyd salw lladdwyr cyfres cyfoes mewn ymosodiad theatrig chwyrn ac erotig ar y synhwyrau.

Making reference to the Mabinogion, religious and famous literacy texts (with specific reference to Eve and Pandora both blamed for all death, pain and suffering in the world), Sowden demonstrates the role of storytelling - in its various forms - in this process of oppression and by virtue of the same media, calls for a remedy to this situation. Josephine graduated from the University of Wales, Newport in 2012 achieving a BA Hons in Photographic Art. She has been awarded the Gold Medal for Fine Art at the 2013 National Eisteddfod as well as appearing in the Caitlin Guide – an introduction to the top 40 most promising artists in the UK.
