Mae Black RAT Productions yn cyflwyno'r fersiwn wreiddiol, ddoniol dros ben hon o ffars gyflym ac afreolus Richard Bean. Ar ôl cael ei ddiswyddo o'i fand sgiffl, mae Francis Henshall yn dod yn warchodwr i Roscoe Crabbe, troseddwr di-nod o'r East End, sydd 'nawr yn Brighton i gasglu £6,000 gan dad ei ddyweddi... Ond Rachel, ei chwaer, yw Roscoe mewn gwirionedd, wedi gwisgo fel ei diweddar frawd, a laddwyd gan ei chariad Stanley Stubbers! Ac yntau ynghudd yn The Cricketers Arms, mae Francis, sydd byth a hefyd ar lwgu, yn gweld siawns am docyn pryd ychwanegol, ac yn derbyn ail swydd gyda Stanley Stubbers, sy'n cuddio rhag yr heddlu ac yn aros i gael ei aduno â Rachel. Er mwyn sicrhau na chaiff ei ddarganfod, rhaid i Francis gadw ei ddau reolwr ar wahân. Syml. Mae'r cynhyrchiad newydd sbon hwn o gynhyrchiad West End a Broadway poblogaidd Richard Bean yn cynnwys cymysgedd gwych o ganeuon, ffwlbri a dywediadau gwych. Dyma brofiad theatrig na ddylid ei golli!

Black RAT Productions present this deliriously funny original version of Richard Bean’s fast-paced, riotous farce. Fired from his skiffle band, Francis Henshall becomes minder to Roscoe Crabbe, a small time East End hood, now in Brighton to collect £6,000 from the dad of his fiancée… But Roscoe is really his sister Rachel posing as her own dead brother who has been killed by her boyfriend Stanley Stubbers! Holed up at The Cricketers Arms, the permanently ravenous Francis spots the chance of an extra meal ticket and takes a second job with one Stanley Stubbers who is hiding from the police and waiting to be reunited with Rachel. To prevent discovery, Francis must keep his two guvnors apart. Simple. This brand new production of the West End and Broadway smash-hit features a ribtickling mix of songs, slapstick and brilliant one-liners. This is a theatrical experience not to be missed!

7 Hydref / 7 October

Yn 1939, roedd Tolkien yn colli gobaith y byddai byth yn gorffen ei waith gwych, THE LORD OF THE RINGS. Un bore, deffrodd gyda Leafe by Niggle yn diwn gron yn ei ben, ac ysgrifennodd y geiriau i lawr. Wedi'i amgylchynu gan ysgolion, beiciau a thrysorau teuluol, mae Richard Medrington yn adrodd campwaith Tolkien, gyda thrac sain gan Karine Polwart a MJ McCarthy. Gyda diolch i Ymddiriedolaeth Tolkien.

In 1939, Tolkien was despairing of ever bringing his great work THE LORD OF THE RINGS to a conclusion. One morning, he woke up with Leaf by Niggle complete in his mind and wrote it down. Surrounded by ladders, bicycles and heirlooms and with a soundtrack by Karine Polwart and MJ McCarthy, Richard Medrington recounts Tolkien’s miniature masterpiece. With thanks to the Tolkien Trust.

Mr Darcy Loses The Plot 16 Tachwedd / 16 November Mae Jane Austen wrthi'n creu a breuddwydio am Darcy, creadigaeth falch, olygus mewn trowsus tynn iawn. Ond yna, mae'r drws yn gwichian ac mae yna ymwelydd yn nesáu at Jane, wrth iddi geisio cuddio ei gwaith ar frys. 'Nawr, ac yntau'n rhydd i wneud fel y mynn, mae Darcy'n llunio ei linell stori ei hun, tra bo'i greawdwr yn brodio ei doilis. Mae byd yr awdur benywaidd yn cael ei ddatod mewn cynhyrchiad eithriadol o ddoniol, llawn parodïau. Mae'r set yn cynnwys gwaith cwilt a grëwyd yn arbennig gan grwpiau cymunedol ar gyfer y cynhyrchiad hwn. I gyfrannu gwaith cwilt, ewch i www.lipservicetheatre.co.uk

Jane Austen is dreaming up Darcy, a proud, lip curling, handsome creation in very tight pants. But then a door squeaks, a visitor approaches and Jane hastily hides her work. Now left to his own devices, Darcy embroiders his own storyline whilst his creator embroiders her doilies. Deliciously tongue-in-cheek, the world of the female writer is deconstructed in a hilarious parody mash-up. The set features quilt work specially created by community groups for this production.

Mae ffi postio dewisol o 75c am bostio’r tocynnau atoch. Mae ad-daliadau yn cael eu rhoi dim ond pan fydd digwyddiad yn cael ei ganslo. Os nad ydych yn gallu dod i’r digwyddiad, gall y tocynnau gael eu cyfnewid (yn amodol ar argaeledd), neu yn ôl disgresiwn staff y Swyddfa Docynnau, gall fod yn bosibl darparu taleb gredyd. Mae tâl gweinyddu o 50c y tocyn i wneud hyn. Pan fydd perfformiad yn cael ei ganslo, bydd y swm llawn yn cael ei ad-dalu drwy siec neu gerdyn, yn dibynnu ar y dull gwreiddiol o dalu. NODWCH: Nid ydym yn gallu cynnig ad-daliad arian parod. Bydd taliadau arian parod yn cael eu had-dalu drwy siec.
