Iliad
Synopsis:
Renowned theatre-makers Mike Pearson and Mike Brookes, celebrated for their recent, large-scale interpretations of Aeschylus' The Persians and Shakespeare and Brecht's Coriolan/us with NTW, will bring their trademark vision to this multimedia staging of Christopher Logue's beautiful, filmic poem, derived from Homer's account of the last years of the Trojan War. The audience will go on an epic journey with a cast of great Welsh actors, a troupe of teenage gods, a stage shaped around them, and vast cinematic landscapes. Each of the four episodes can be viewed individually, while bolder audience members can choose to see all four in one of two extraordinary, omnibus performances - either all day or overnight.

Synopsis:
Two men in a room; twenty monologues recorded on video; improvised texts and a live mix of the lot supervised by a visual artist. It doesn't sound like the terrain usually associated with Welsh playwright Ed Thomas, but that's what's he's exploring this month in the company of Mike Pearson and Mike Brookes. A new media performance assembling texts, films and telling stories played out in the city. Performed live by Mike Pearson and Ed Thomas with a cast of 10 actors on film.
