Bred In Heaven Bred in Heaven - The Road to Twickers Connection Failed I'll Be there In A Minute Now! Whose Coat Is That Jacket?Bred In Heaven
Synopsis:
a new theatre piece inspired by the 1978 BBC film Grand Slam. Written by Jack Llewellyn and directed by Michael Bogdanov. Thirty three years have passed since the infamous trip that took Maldwyn, Glyn, Mog and Caradog away for the weekend to see Wales play France in the Five Nations Championship match that decided the Grand Slam title. This time it's August 2011 and Maldwyn (Sion Probert) has had an epiphany: he believes he must travel to New Zealand to help Wales reach the final of the Rugby World Cup. On this two month Kiwi tour we will see lifelong friendships made, relationship make-ups and breakups. Can they follow God's vision and help get Wales to the final? Can Maldwyn still stand after too many Mojitos? Can he stop looking at Shane Williams that way!? Maldwyn and his rugby mad friends will take the audience on tour' with them. This fast paced comedy will follow the highs and the lows of following the heroes in red who grace God's green, green grass. But remember, what goes on tour stays on tour!

Synopsis:
From the makers of the 2011 smash hit Bred in Heavencomes a new and exciting comedy. Last time we followed the fortunes of Maldwyn Novello Pughe, the star of rugby comedy Grand Slam, and friends as they ventured to the Rugby World Cup in New Zealand. This time the challenge lie closer to home at Twickenham, or Twickers as the locals like to call it. We go on tour with a rugby mad group of friends making the journey east along the M4, and over the Severn Bridge in a quest to support our boys in red as they aim to derail the chariot! The flamboyant and loveable Maldwyn is back and promises the tour of a lifetime that the boys will never forget, although some will wish that they could! Can Wales go one step further than 2011 and make the final? Can they turn over the old enemy on their own front lawn? Follow the highs and lows of outrageous misfortunes while cheering on our boys. See you on the field!
