Unknown Pleasures 2012 - Jesu, meine Freude +
St Mary's Chruch, Swansea, SA1 3LP
Directed by Eddie Ladd
From an original idea developed in collaboration with Volcano Theatre, Unknown Pleasures is now in its fifth year. It is a joint venture between Taliesin Arts Centre and Swansea Metropolitan University which seeks to bring together Wales’ finest artists and its best emerging talent. The partnership seeks to encourage creative risk and innovation and to make bold and adventurous work, inspiring and nurturing the newest generation of performers in creating fresh and engaging theatre.
This year, Eddie Ladd, one of Wales’ principal movement practitioners, will create a site-specific work in St Mary’s Church, Jesu, meine Freude +. The show combines Bach’s music (sung live by with Swansea Bach Choir) and physical theatre to create an engaging and visually stunning experience.
Prices £7/£5, tickets available from Taliesin Arts Centre, 01792 60 20 60 http://www.taliesinartscentre.co.uk
Unknown Pleasures 2012 – Jesu, meine Freude +
Cyfarwyddwyd gan Eddie Ladd
Wedi’i seilio ar syniad gwreiddiol a ddatblygwyd ar y cyd gyda chwmni theatr Volcano, mae Unknown Pleasures nawr ar ei bumed flwyddyn. Mae’n gyd-fenter rhwng Canolfan Celfyddydau Taliesin a Phrifysgol Fetropolitan Abertawe sy’n ceisio dod ag artistiaid gorau Cymru a’i thalent newyddaf at ei gilydd. Mae’r bartneriaeth yn annog i’r ddau fentro’n greadigol a chynhyrchu gwaith beiddgar ac anturus, a fydd yn ysbrydoli’r genhedlaeth ddiweddaraf o berfformwyr i greu theatr ffres a bachog.
Mae Eddie Ladd yn un o berfformwyr theatr gorfforol blaenllaw Cymru, ac eleni, bydd yn creu darn o’r enw Jesu, meine Freude+ ar safle arbennig, sef Eglwys y Santes Fair. Bydd y sioe yn cyfuno cerddoriaeth Bach (a genir yn fyw gan Gôr Bach Abertawe) a theatr gorfforol er mwyn llunio darn gafaelgar a thrawiadol.
Dydd Sadwrn Mai 26ain – 7.30yh
