Mill on the Floss By George Eliot Adapted by Helen Edmundson A re-invention of George Eliot's classic story of loss, tragedy and the relentless nature of fate, premièred by Shared Experience Theatre Company. Outgrowing, but still hopelessly devoted to, her family, Maggie befriends the disfigured Phillip Wakem, son of a local lawyer. But their fathers become embroiled in a bitter legal dispute that only the prosperous Wakem can win, and the Tullivers find fate dealing them the first harsh hand of many. With their father dead, the family must face up to their cold future together. The Arts Centre’s Youth Theatre are delighted to present this modern adaptation of one of the greatest classics of all time. Mae’n bleser gan Theatr Ieuenctid y Ganolfan gyflwyno’r addasiad modern hwn o glasur enwog George Eliot am golled, trasedi a natur ddidostur ffawd.

Featuring some of the finest young contemporary folk musicians on the scene, exploring and celebrating the shared history and culture of two nations, England and Wales. In a unique artistic residential collaboration, they will dig into the countries’ national archives to unearth traditional songs and tunes that have transcended the border and create new material together. A rare opportunity to savour a new piece of musical history. Beyond The Marches / Dros y Ffin is a joint commission by trac Cymru and the English Folk Dance and Song Society. It is supported by the PRS for Music Foundation Beyond Borders programme, a co-commissioning and touring programme run in partnership with Creative Scotland, Arts Council of Wales, Arts Council of Northern Ireland and Arts Council of Ireland / An Chomhairle Ealaíon.

Pitschi the Kitten with Dreams Pitschi doesn’t care for the rough and tumble and mischievous fun of kitten play, but instead dreams of being something else – a chicken, perhaps, or a goat, or a rabbit… for after all, anything is better than being a cat! This original production uses a rich mix of story-telling, physical theatre, music and song to tell the story of a kitten that learns to be happy by being exactly what she is. “45 minutes of pure magic” Fringe Review “A heart warming show“ The Stage Dydy Pitschi ddim yn hoffi holl sgarmesu a hwyl ddrygionus chwarae cathod bach, ond yn hytrach yn breuddwydio am fod yn rhywbeth arall – iâr, hwyrach neu afr, neu gwningen… Dewch i fwynhau’r stori glasurol hon o’r Swistir sydd wedi plesio cenedlaethau o blant – a’r rhai sy’n hoff o gathod – ym mhedwar ban byd.

Summer Ball 2015 Bred in Heaven: The Dawns Haf Road to Twickers Summer Ball is once again taking Written by Jack Llewellyn and directed by Michael Bogdanov Following on from the 2011 smash hit ‘Bred in Heaven’, this time the challenges lie closer to home, at 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! This time our Welsh regulars are joined by the only Englishman in the village, the nephew of the iconic Maldwyn – Rupert Novello Pugh! He promises the tour of a lifetime that the boys will never forget, although some will wish that they could!

Summer Ball 2015 is the perfect way get in the summer mood! Bydd y Ddawns Haf unwaith eto yn cymryd y campws drosodd, gyda noson hwyliog yn llawn adloniant byw yn cael ei chynnal yn Undeb y Myfyrwyr a Chanolfan y Celfyddydau. Tair llwyfan wych yn croesawu rhai o’r artistiaid gorau o’r DU a thu hwnt.

Yn dilyn y sioe hynod lwyddiannus ‘Bred in Heaven’ yn 2011, mae Maldwyn a’i ffrindiau yn dychwelyd i’n difyrru! Y tro hwn ymunir â’r criw gan yr unig Sais yn y pentref wrth iddynt deithio ar hyd yr M4 i Twickenham! Gwelwn ni chi ar y maes!

A Walk at the Edge of the World Created by Nicholas Bone, Sans façon and Ian Cameron A man invites the audience to come on a walk with him. When they reach their destination, he talks about walks he has taken, showing images of places he has visited. This award-winning production is a reflection on the act of walking, exploring memory and place and the state of mind created by walking. “A rich tapestry, beautifully woven and with quiet points of resonance” The Scotsman Please note: This event begins with a 20 minute walk. Please wear appropriate footwear and clothing. An accessible alternative will be available.

Murder on the Nile Simon Mostyn has recently married Kay Ridgeway, a rich woman, having thrown over his former lover Jacqueline. The couple are on their honeymoon on a paddle steamer on the Nile, accompanied by a bevy of memorable characters. Jacqueline shoots Simon, wounding him in the knee. A few moments later Kay is found shot in her bunk. By the time the boat reaches its destination, Canon Pennefather has laid bare an audacious conspiracy! Theatr Gymuned y Ganolfan yn cyflwyno stori glasurol Agatha Christie am lofruddiaeth a llawer mwy… Noson ddifyr o ddryswch a chymhlethdodau!

Man and Superman Ralph Fiennes stars in this exhilarating reinvention of Shaw’s witty, provocative classic. A romantic comedy, an epic fairytale, a fiery philosophical debate, Man and Superman asks fundamental questions about how we live. Jack Tanner, celebrated radical thinker and rich bachelor, seems an unlikely choice as guardian to the alluring heiress, Ann. But she takes it in her assured stride and, despite the love of a poet, she decides to marry and tame this dazzling revolutionary. Tanner, appalled by the whiff of domesticity, flees to Spain, where he is captured by bandits and meets The Devil. An extraordinary dream-debate, heaven versus hell, ensues.

Catrin Finch: Tides Versatile, fearless and extraordinary are all words that have been used to describe Catrin Finch, the world-renowned classical harpist, arranger and composer from Wales. Catrin’s 2015 UK tour marks an exciting new phase in her remarkable musical career; it accompanies the launch of her new album Tides. As Catrin plays harp and piano, she is joined by a string section and other guest musicians to present her new album live on stage. Expect a beautiful musical journey from an extraordinary musician who is at the forefront of her remarkable art. Supported by the Arts Council of Wales, Welsh Government and the National Lottery.

Mae gan Catrin Finch, y delynores glodfawr o Gymru, yrfa glasurol ryngwladol lwyddiannus, ac mae wedi rhoi datganiadau ac wedi chwarae gyda cherddorfeydd ar draws y byd. Ond mae taith 2015 Catrin yn marcio cyfnod cyffrous newydd yn ei gyrfa gerddorol ryfeddol; mae’n cyd-fynd â lansiad ei halbwm newydd Tides. 10 .

Appalachian Jack Tales: Jack in the New World Alan Hoal grew up in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains, a region rich in folklore and stories. The inhabitants of these mountain communities owe their heritage to Welsh, Scottish and Irish settlers. These hardy immigrants brought their stories with them and adapted them to fit the times and traditions of the Appalachian region. One of the most prominent characters is Jack – from his heroic image in Arthurian legend to the simple but clever peasant eking out a hardscrabble existence. Come hear some of these classic tales as told by a modern day southern storyteller. Cafodd Alan Hoal ei fagu yng nghanol Mynyddoedd yr Appalachiaid, rhanbarth sydd â llenyddiaeth, diwylliant a straeon gwerin cyfoethog – mae trigolion y cymunedau mynyddig hyn yn ddyledus i’r ymsefydlwyr o Gymru, yr Alban ac Iwerddon am eu treftadaeth werthfawr.

Probably the most popular opera in the world. Bizet’s Carmen scandalised its earliest audiences with its raw depiction of lust in 19th-century Seville. In ENO’s popular production, the action is a full-on battle of the sexes, fought out in the arena of the Spanish bullring.

Yn seiliedig ar un o’i gyfrolau mwyaf llwyddiannus, mae ‘Lleuad yn Olau’ yn dod â rhai o’n straeon gwerin enwocaf yn fyw mewn perfformiad cyfoes a digri. O hiwmor ‘Y Fuwch ar y Tô’ i ddirgelwch stori ‘Lleuad yn Olau’, bydd y gynulleidfa yn sicr o werthfawrogi pam bod yr awdur enwog hwn yn cael ei gydnabod fel ‘brenin llenyddiaeth plant Cymru’.

During World War Two, the grounds of Bletchley Park housed some of Britain’s greatest minds. Alongside Alan Turing and Gordon Welchman, thousands of gifted men and women lived and worked together in this eccentric country house. Decades later, as Bletchley’s secrets begin to be revealed, another group of groundbreaking volunteers gather to save the home of the Enigma code breakers. Using personal testimony, multimedia and inventive staging, this is an insightful, innovative and immersive celebration of the people whose hidden heroism changed the course of history.

(12 Years a Slave) takes the title role in this dynamic new production of one of English drama’s oldest plays, directed by the National Theatre’s new Director Rufus Norris. Everyman is successful, popular and riding high when Death comes calling. He is forced to abandon the life he has built and embark on a last, frantic search to recruit a friend, anyone, to speak in his defence. But Death is close behind, and time is running out. A cornerstone of English drama since the 15th century, it now explodes onto the stage in a startling production with words by Carol Ann Duffy, Poet Laureate, and movement by Javier De Frutos. Showing live in our cinema. 90mins.

In the melting pot of Venice, trade is God. With its ships plying the globe, the city opens its arms to all, as long as they come prepared to do business and there is profit to be made.

A wronged father, and despised outsider, Shylock looks to exact the ultimate price for a deal sealed in blood. Polly Findlay (Arden of Faversham 2014) directs Shakespeare's uncompromising tragedy.

National Portrait Gallery: BP Portrait Award 2014

Clive Hicks Jenkins: Dark Movements

Now in its 25th year, The BP Portrait Award from the National Portrait Gallery shows fifty-five outstanding and innovative new portraits from around the world. From informal and personal studies of friends and family to revealing images of famous faces, the exhibition features a variety of styles and approaches to the contemporary painted portrait. The works on display, selected from a record-breaking 2,377 entries, include the winner of the £30,000 first prize as well as the work of the BP Young Artist 2014 and the BP Travel Award 2013 winners.

‘Dark Movements’ is a multi-media presentation of works inspired by the Mari Lwyd or ‘grey mare’ story of Welsh mumming tradition; a key influence on Clive Hicks Jenkins’ art. This exhibition will include a number of works from the original series of large scale drawings which the artist made following his father‘s death; works articulating a private grief and fear as well as exploring deep-rooted cultural beliefs. Exhibited alongside these will be new paintings and animated film using the artist’s puppetry figures, as well as examples of the ‘shadow puppet’ models which Clive uses in his painting practice. Puppets and models from the 2013 performance of the chamber-work inspired by the artist's Mari Lwyd series, ‘The Mare’s Tale’ (composer Mark Bowden and librettist Damian Walford Davies), will also be on show.

Bu traddodiad y Fari Lwyd yn ddylanwad allweddol yng ngwaith yr artist Clive Hicks Jenkins. Mae’r arddangosfa hon yn gyflwyniad aml-gyfrwng o weithiau a ysbrydolwyd gan y stori ac mae’n cynnwys nifer o ddarnau o’r gyfres wreiddiol o arluniadau ar raddfa fawr a waethpwyd gan yr artist yn dilyn marwolaeth ei dad; darnau sy’n mynegi galar ac ofn preifat yn ogystal ag archwilio credau diwylliannol dwfn. Ochr yn ochr â’r darnau hyn arddangosir paentiadau newydd a ffilm animeiddiedig yn defnyddio ffigyrau pypedwaith yr artist, yn ogystal ag enghreifftiau o’r modelau ‘pyped cysgod’ a ddefnyddir gan Clive yn ei ymarfer paentio.

HYNT Art and culture is for everyone. But if you have an impairment or a specific access requirement, often enjoying a visit to a theatre or an arts centre can be more complicated than just booking tickets and choosing what to wear. Hynt is a national scheme that works with theatres and arts centres across Wales to make things clear and consistent. Hynt cardholders are entitled to a ticket free of charge for a personal assistant or carer at the Arts Centre and all the theatres and arts centres participating in the scheme. Visit www.hynt.co.uk or www.hynt.cym to find a range of information and guidance about the scheme. You can also find out whether you or the person you care for are eligible to join the scheme and complete an application form.
