Galwad

We’re proud partners on Galwad, a real-time story from our future which will broadcast across multiple channels this September.

Our Artistic Director, Gethin Evans, is directing the live production element of the broadcast which is part of an audacious blend of live, real-time digital theatre and television drama.

In keeping with our values, young people have been at the heart of the whole creative process. They’ve received incredible opportunities to collaborate with world-class artists and they have come together to imagine what a future Wales could look like.

Working with national and international partners, the story unfolds on S4C, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube and TikTok over the course of a week culminating in a live theatre broadcast from Blaenau Ffestiniog followed by a television drama on Sky Arts.

Y Gwir yn Erbyn y Byd

So, if you’re heading to Tregaron, keep an eye out for a peculiar grandfather clock and a huge round table…and pop over to see what’s going on…
