A Neontopia production in collaboration with Wales Millennium Centre, supported by the Arts Council of Wales

Ma’ Patsy Thatcher am roi’r gorau i Drag - y ffidil, y foundation a’r ffrogiau’n y tô… Ond a fydd gyrfa’i chydbechadures, Martha, yn ffynnu (neu’n ffyni) hebddi?

Tuck yw cynhyrchiad deinamig, amlieithog newydd Neontopia, yn llawn gorfoledd a galar, sy'n addo codi’r tô gydag anthemau cyfarwydd a chaneuon gwreiddiol… cyn ei chwalu’n ddeilchion o'ch blaenau.
