Dubious political dealings, a rioting populace, mishandled money, panic – sound familiar? The Government Inspector is one of the world’s most famous plays. Written in 1835 and set in Tsarist Russia, it is a classic satire on human vanity. By turns hilarious and vicious in its exposé of corruption among those in power, this masterpiece seems made for the times we live in. Trafodion gwleidyddol amheus, poblogaeth derfysglyd, arian yn cael ei gam-drafod, panig – swnio’n gyfarwydd? The Government Inspector yw un o ddramâu enwocaf y byd. Fe’i hysgrifennwyd ym 1835, ac mae wedi ei gosod yn y Rwsia’r Tsar. Dyma ddrama ddycha glasurol ar falchder dynolryw. Yn ddoniol a milain am yn ail, wrth ddatguddio llygredd y rhai mewn grym, dyma gampwaith ar gyfer ein oes ni.

1830s Russia. Poprishchin – a low ranking civil servant for the Government – is in his 40s and struggling to make his mark on life. Driven insane by government bureaucracy and hierarchy, Gogol’s dark comedy exposes one man’s reality spiralling deeper into a surreal fantasy world. Considered by many to be Gogol’s best work, Diary of a Madman is a timeless piece that explores the human condition when it comes face to face with its own mortality. Rwsia yn y 1830au. Mae Poprishchin yn ei 40au – gwas sifil â swydd digon cyffredin yn y Llywodraeth, yn ymdrechu i adael ei ôl ar fywyd. Mae comedi tywyll Gogol yn archwilio realiti un dyn sy’n disgyn yn is ac yn is i fyd o ffantasi swreal. I lawer, Diary of a Madman yw gwaith gorau Gogol ac mae’n ddarn oesol sy’n archwilio’r cyflwr dynol pan ddaw wyneb-yn-wyneb â’i farwoldeb ei hun.

Two Men. Two World Wars. Two lives knitted together as tight as a thrice darned sock. Bound together by birth, business and bad luck, Albert and Harold Steptoe wake up every morning to the same old, same old, sickening sight of each other. Do they even notice the world turning as they cling on? Adapted from the legendary scripts of Galton and Simpson, this is a 20th century icon, reimagined for a new generation. From its home in Cornwall, Kneehigh Theatre has built a reputation for creating vigorous and popular theatre for audiences worldwide. We’re delighted to welcome them to the Sherman for the first time. Dau Ddyn. Dau Ryfel Byd. Dau fywyd wedi eu cydblethu mor dynn â hosan a ddarniwyd deirgwaith. Wedi eu clymu trwy enedigaeth, busnes ac anffawd, mae Albert a Harold Steptoe yn dihuno bob dydd i’r un hen olygfa gyfoglyd – ei gilydd. Ydyn nhw’n sylwi ar y byd yn troi wrth iddyn nhw ymbalfalu i ddal gafael? Dyma gomedi tywyll o angerdd dwys, sy’n eicon o’r 20fed ganrif o’r newydd ar gyfer cenhedlaeth newydd. O’i chartref yng Nghernyw, mae Kneehigh Theatre wedi meithrin enw da am greu theatr fywiog a phoblogaidd ar gyfer cynulleidfaoedd ar draws y Deyrnas Unedig a thu hwnt, ac rydyn ni wrth ein boddau i’w croesawu i’r Sherman am y tro cyntaf.

Rita is unhappy with her job and the low expectations of those around her. She wants to know ‘everything’, so embarks on an Open University course in English Literature which will change her life forever. Thought-provoking, funny and moving, Willy Russell’s Educating Rita is a comic masterpiece and a modern stage classic. Educating Rita is directed by Emma Lucia following her successful production of A Doll’s House which was performed by Clwyd Theatr Cymru at the Sherman last year. Mae Rita yn anhapus gyda’i gwaith a disgwyliadau isel y rheiny o’i chwmpas. Mae am wybod ‘popeth’ ac felly mae’n cychwyn ar gwrs gyda’r Brifysgol Agored mewn Llenyddiaeth Saesneg a wnaith newid ei bywyd am byth. Mae Educating Rita yn gampwaith doniol a theimladwy sy’n procio’r meddwl ac yn glasur modern. Cyfarwyddir gan Emma Lucia, yn dilyn ei chynhyrchiad llwyddiannus o A Doll’s House gan Henrik Ibsen yn Sherman Cymru y llynedd.

This rags to riches story tells of a young girl escaping the drudgery of the Llanelli tin works and her struggle to reach the highest pinnacle of showbiz, ending with her sad demise, penniless back in the valleys of Wales. Dorothy Squires was one of Britain’s most successful performers. Her life was often the focus of media attention; her electrifying on-stage presence, her sell-out comeback concerts at the London Palladium and her tempestuous marriage to Roger Moore, were overshadowed by her predilection for litigation and battles with Rupert Murdoch, resulting in her being made a vexatious litigant. Hanes merch ifanc sy’n dianc rhag diflastod y gwaith tun yn Llanelli, a’i brwydr i gyrraedd pinacl uchaf y diwydiant adloniant, cyn gorffen yn ôl yng nghymoedd y De, ble fu farw mewn tlodi. Dorothy Squires oedd un o berfformwyr mwyaf llwyddiannus Prydain, a’i bywyd yn aml yn denu sylw’r cyfryngau. ‘Roedd ei phresenoldeb trydanol ar lwyfan, ei chyngherddau llwyddiannus yn y Palladium yn Llundain, a’i phriodas tymhestlog gyda Roger Moore, oll yn pylu yng nghysgod ei hobsesiwn o ymgyfreitha a’i brwydrau â Rupert Murdoch, a hithau yn y pendraw yn dod yn ‘ymgyfreithiwr flinderus’.

Mae Dyled Eileen yn olrhain hanes safiad Eileen a Trefor Beasley yn erbyn biliau trethi Saesneg a’r frwydr hir a berwyd iddynt golli eu heiddo bron iawn i gyd i’r beilïaid wrth iddynt glirio’r parlwr ddarn wrth ddarn. Mae portread Angharad Tomos yn dod â chyfnod cythryblus y 50au yn fyw – cyn darlith radio enwog Saunders Lewis – ac yn ein tywys i gofio aberth y cwpwl yma a’u brwydr dros y Gymraeg. Dyled Eileen portrays Eileen and Trefor Beasley’s protest against their local authority in the 1950s to receive their tax bill in Welsh. During their eight year struggle they refused to pay their debt to the then Rural District Council of Llanelli. Angharad Tomos’ heartfelt script brings to life this passionate, yet humble and very personal story that served as a revolutionary example in Saunders Lewis’ famous radio lecture of 1962, The Fate of the Language.

Twisting perception of what dance is, who can dance and who enjoys it – Candoco presents an evening of three diverse dance works.
Gan wyrdroi ein syniad arferol am ddawns, pwy sy’n gallu a phwy sy’n mwynhau dawnsio – mae Candoco yn cyflwyno tri darn amrywiol.
Set and Reset/Reset is a restaging of one of Trisha Brown’s signature works, which confirmed her as a pioneer of contemporary dance. Choreographer Javier de Frutos returns to Candoco with Studies for C. inspired by the poetry of Tennessee Williams and set to traditional Mexican Ranchera music. Rounding off the evening is Imperfect Storm, loosely based on Shakespeare’s The Tempest, devised by renowned theatre and dance artist Wendy Houstoun.
Mae Set and Reset/Reset yn aillwyfaniad o un o ddarnau unigryw Trisha Brown, un o arloeswyr y byd dawns cyfoes. Mae’r coreograffydd Javier de Frutos yn dychwelyd at Candoco gyda Studies for C. ysbrydolwyd gan farddoniaeth Tennessee Williams, ac fe’i gosodir i gerddoriaeth draddodiadol Ranchera Mecsico. I ddiweddu’r noson ceir Imperfect Storm, wedi’i seilio, i raddau, ar The Tempest gan Shakespeare, a ddyfeisiwyd gan yr artist theatr a dawns enwog, Wendy Houstoun.
