🏴 Happy St. David's Day. Before Wales had theatres, it had audiences. In the 6th century, St. David gathered crowds in fields and on hillsides to hear him speak. Churches were too small, so stories were told outdoors, shaped by rhythm, voice and gesture so everyone could follow. That tradition continued through the bards and storytellers who carried the tales of the Mabinogion, holding communities together through shared listening. So today we’re not only celebrating our patron saint, but the roots of Welsh storytelling itself.
🏴 Dydd Gŵyl Dewi Hapus. Cyn i Gymru gael theatrau, roedd ganddi gynulleidfaoedd. Yn y 6ed ganrif, casglodd Dewi Sant dyrfaoedd mewn caeau ac ar lethrau’r mynyddoedd i'w glywed yn siarad. Roedd eglwysi'n rhy fach, felly adroddwyd straeon yn yr awyr agored, wedi'u llunio gan rythm, llais ac ystum fel y gallai pawb ddilyn. Parhaodd y traddodiad hwnnw trwy'r beirdd a'r adroddwyr straeon a gariodd straeon y Mabinogi, gan ddal cymunedau at i gilydd trwy wrando ar y cyd. Felly heddiw nid yn unig yr ydym yn dathlu ein nawddsant, ond gwreiddiau adrodd straeon Cymru ei hun.

Crockett: "I don't really know where we are in this country. Why are we even having this conversation? The United States is falling apart right now, partially because he's allowing for the killings of people in the middle of the street, but the other part of it is we have a 34 count convicted felon and there are people that are still shielding him from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we are pretending like any of this is normal."

'Thank you for this recognition for not just me, for everything that we're doing here, and for all the theatres in Wales as well.'
Here are a few words from the number one on this year's #TheStage100: @michaelsheen! ⭐
Theatre "bonds us and connects us and that ultimately is the importance of the arts" says actor Michael Sheen.
His production 'Our Town' is debuting tonight in Swansea.
Sheen created and funded the Welsh National Theatre after the arts scene in Wales was left reeling when funding cuts led to the end of National Theatre Wales.
I’m so proud that our first @WelshNatTheatre production ‘OUR TOWN’ is spearheaded by these three brilliant women Director@FrancescaJadeG Movement Director @j_sswilliams and Designer@hayleygrindle
