The 'love steals us from loneliness' cast hit the streets of Bridgend - on a mission!

After being brought to tears by the read through yesterday, I was determined that today I would toughen up - I didn't think I would have to be as brave as I was!

Well - we arrived at Cardiff Central for our day trip to the venue in Bridgend. As we were handed out our rail tickets it was like going on a school trip - I was a little over excited and buzzing off too much caffiene and broken sleep...but as we came out the other side in Bridgend, I had to pinch myself to check I wasn't…

16 hopeful poets battle it out for a place in the London final in this witty war-of-the-words!

Jam Bones offers up the juiciest in spoken word with regular slams, jams, and open mics. This is poetry with panache, pizzaz, and pout - a vivacious and vibrant mix of rap, comedy, theatre, and literature. Anyone can take part, and no subject or style is taboo!



In this first ever Welsh heat of the…

Room to Read

Another public space in Cardiff was successfully transformed into Room to Read on Saturday. Gorsedd Gardens, usually surrounded by traffic noise and a busy route for shoppers to-ing and fro-ing, became filled with the rhythm of spoken words. One passer-by who stopped to listen commented - 'It's like dipping into a…

The Lizard Brain

Seth Godin outlines a common creative affliction: sabotaging our

projects just before we show them to the world. Godin targets our

"lizard brain" as the source of these primal doubts, and implores us to

"thrash at the beginning" of projects so that we can ship on time and

on budget.

Saturday Morning - Take a Deep Breath

Okay, so if there's a mid point in our year-long theatre map, this is probably it. For me at least. I guess in theory half way through rehearsals of Love Steals us would be the mid point of 13 shows - or half way through the run.... but it certainly won't feel like a moment to pause and reflect. So I am officially designating today, Saturday 28 August and John McGrath's personal half-way point in the launch year programme of National Theatre Wales.



I'm not going to do a review of… Continue

Time to save a theatre

Up here on the North Pembrokeshire coast, there's not much in the way of theatre. And the one theatre we do have, Pembrokeshire County Council is intent on closing - by way of council cuts. Theatr Gwaun in Fishguard was (from the 1920s) a cinema, and still is - but from the 1990s it was reconfigured with stage and lighting for theatre and musical events. Closing the theatre would not only deprive the North Pembrokeshire community of an important entertainment venue, but one which can bring the… Continue
