- TUCK:
Patsy Thatcher wants out of Drag for good, but Martha needs Patsy because she’s ‘the funny one’… Can the show go on without her?
Neontopia’s brand new production, Tuck, is an exhilarating and multilingual blend of comedy, sequins and sorrow, which will raise the roof using much-loved anthems and original songs... before smashing it back down to earth.
A Neontopia production in collaboration with Wales Millennium Centre, supported by the Arts Council of Wales
FFRESH, WALES MILLENNIUM CENTRE

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.
Cynhyrchiad Neontopia mewn cydweithrediad â Chanolfan Mileniwm Cymru, cefnogir gan Gyngor Celfyddydau Cymru

Well we've been on tour since March with a show I wrote for Theatr na n'Og called 'The Boy, the Chick and the Golden Egg' or in Welsh, 'Y Bachgen, y Cyw a'r Ŵy Aur'... It's been a lo-o-o-ot of fun! For anybody who's already seen it, well I really hope you enjoyed - for anybody who's yet to see it, time is short but I really hope you will enjoy!
We've been down Cardiff Bay for three days at Eisteddfod yr Urdd… Continue
