Kyle Legall is directing RATS (Rose Against The System) which will be taking place during the second week of April 2017 at the WMC. This is a tale about the everyday struggle of a family of rats looking for food in the ever-changing urban environment that is modern Butetown. On the hunt for food the RATS stumble upon a secret society that has plans to blow up Cardiff Bay.

We are looking for four performers of any gender and any ethnicity and are particularly interested in finding people with poetic, singing, mask, Kung Fu and/or dancing abilities to play the RATS. You will need to be available between 27th March and 9th April. 

A knowledge of Hip-Hop culture is desirable but not essential.

Fee is £100 per day.

This project is funded by Arts Council of Wales.

Fio want to bring people together in a conversation about race, equality and poverty in 2016. Looking at the themes of The Mountaintop. Asking what has changed since the death of Martin Luther King?

We will be working with Black History Month Wales, Stand Upto Racism and other organisations to programme two event days including speeches, discussions, music, poetry and more.

Big announcement...

Today we are launching Kiln 3! Applications for writing are now open at:http://www.clocktower-tc.co.uk/?page_id=632 so start getting busy.

Building from the incredible success of Kiln 1 and 2, Kiln 3 is being run as a free R&D project for local writers. Have you had a budding idea in the back of your mind and need the impetus to do it? Are you 9 tenths of the way there and need that extra push to get it on it's feet? Then Kiln is for you. Submit your ideas in as complete a format as you have them before the end of the month and we'll consider them to be part of Kiln 3, with 3 pieces being chosen.

Your piece will be worked on by a dedicated director and a cast of talented actors, and performed in front of a live audience on the first weekend of October, November and December, all for free. What better way to get your ideas out there, so get your pens at the ready and start submitting.

Welcome to Kiln 3 - It's gonna be huge.
