Got back from Greece to see this lovely article by Mark Rees in the South Wales Evening Post about Aberystwyth Mon Amour and our colleagues at October Sixty Six and Fluellen. An altogether pleasant surprise! Thanks to the Grand for helping us get it on.

I'm wondering if I might get some suggestions on bringing in some high quality or unusual workshop ideas or practitioners to come in and work with us at Mid Powys Youth Theatre. Doesn't need to be for actors, but could be something in Tech/SM or Set Design, Puppetry, Pyro, any unusual disciplines that you may know or have some experience of.
Thanks for any thoughts.

Come and work with us as Head of Creative Development  / Dewch i weithio hefo ni fel Pennaeth Datblygu Creadigol

I'll announce the date of the new single when I know. Peace and ENERGY and…
