A big thank-you to everyone who performed at Word4Word for making it a great night!! We were really impressed with the variety of performance styles and the level of talent on offer. It was wonderful to see such a deserved audience turnout. 

 

Please check out Anna Poole's blog on the event: http://community.nationaltheatrewales.org/profiles/blogs/word4word?...

 

Make sure to check out Scratch that Itch with the wondrful Brent Morgan on 28th September at Monkey Bar Swansea.

 

And if you're heading down to the MadeinRoath festival don't forget to pop in to The Gower Pub on Sunday 16th October to catch Empty Pocket Theatre: Sparks.

EP night: Sparks
All working on a stage illuminated with different light forms, four writers showcase four fresh sparks of ideas. 
This is Empty Pocket's first EP - an experimental platform - for imaginations to emerge from the dark. 
Cheers guys!
