What is Theatr Unnos?
Imagine a combination of a creative boot camp and an artistic sleepover.
Theatr Unnos brings theatre creators, artists, and performers together. No preparation. No plan. Just 24 hours of honest, instinctive creation.
You will receive a challenge. And then? Create something. Fast.
You will share your 30-minute piece with an audience during a fun sharing evening at Caffi Maes B on the Eisteddfod maes.
The Rules
No pre-written scripts. Just instinct, trust, chaos, and creativity.
Take a risk. Support one another. Create a glorious mess. Surprise yourself. This isn't about perfection. It’s about possibilities. No judging. Just enjoying.
Theatr Unnos takes ideas back to their roots, the spark, that strange and wonderful moment before the planning begins. In a world of deadlines and grant forms, this is a chance to take a leap and go for it.
Come and create something unforgettable. Together.
