Theatr na nOg

Theatr na nÓg was established in 1982 to produce theatre for a wide spectrum of audiences throughout Wales in a variety of venues and locations in both languages.

The literal translation of Theatr na nÓg is theatre of eternal youth and this encapsulates the ethos of the Company by creating theatre that has the power to excite and engage audiences of all ages.

The Company is a regular provider of main stage work throughout the country and continues to expand its portfolio of venues.

Theatr na nÓg continues to evolve from being a company that solely produces work for schools to being recognised by the Arts Council of Wales as one of their producing theatre companies that will be encouraged to produce work to a variety of audiences throughout Wales and beyond.

Theatr na nÓg is now an Associate Company to the Wales Millennium Centre. This enables the Company to produce new work for a broad range of audiences, and to raise its profile on an international stage.

Its collaborations with non-arts specific organisations such as the Natural History Museum, London, Swansea Museum, The National Museum of Wales, The National Botanic Gardens of Wales, has enabled Theatr na nÓg to reach out to a wider audience with a diverse range of subjects, using theatre to highlight the importance of scientific and historic themes.

We are currently working on a show about the early life of Tom Jones which opened in Pontypridd on St David's Day, to be followed by a UK tour.
