Chwilys (Inquisition)
Synopsis:
a Drama peculiar to our time with its exploration of the fearful paranoia created amongst us by the rulers of this turbulent world. No innocent is truly safe, not even the highly respected academic in our play. When an unwelcome and sinister stranger breaks into the bookish, cloistered haven of his flat, the ordinariness of his life is twisted and distorted into something monstrous and his very being threatened. Part social comment, part surreal thriller, part poetry, Chwilys is an intense theatrical experience.

Merched Eira
Synopsis:
Senility, loneliness and the casual treachery of everyday life drives this latest play by Aled Jones-Williams. Once again he leads us to the darkest place in the lightest way possible and swings a warm bright lantern over the edge of the coldest cliff of all. According to Aled " 'merched Eira' is a play that explores the possible meanings of identity. How the young and middle-aged 'I' finds its place in the ageing 'I'. An image emerged of two old women coming into a blizzard. As I listened to that initial image other pictures and words came into being. It is a sheer joy to have Gaynor Morgan Rees and Olwen Rees incarnate those images into a theatrical event and the sensitive and exact hand of Bryn Fon directing the whole into something that an author can say 'Yes!' to."

Wall
Synopsis:
Two characters, one room and a conversation in the tradition of Beckett and Pinter. the claustrophobic confines of the room are stripped away with the wallpaper and we are lead along dark but strangely illuminating paths into the characters' subconscious. Contradictions of violence and vulnerability, tenderness and hate come flying through every crack in the plaster. At the same time both threatening and very funny this powerful, provocative play offers challenges not only for the actors and director but also for the audience.
