Elinor Bennett: Llais Hen Delynau
Thursday 9 October 7.30pm
An opportunity to listen to music from the 18th and early 19th centuries played on two wonderful old harps, made in the same period. The story begins with the Triple harp, which was developed in Italy during the Baroque period and was played at the Royal Court in London at the time of Handel. With three rows of strings, the triple harp was difficult to play, expensive to string, and was forgotten by harpists in other countries. Paradoxically, it was adopted by the old Welsh harpists, and became the instrument of ordinary people in Wales. The harp played in this programme was made by the famous Triple harp-maker, John Richard of Llanrwst, circa 1755.

A MAN IN THE MAKING
It’s 2015. Jac is a young trans man, born in the wrong body, beginning the search for the life he knows he’s meant to live.
As he begins his transition, tensions rise, relationships strain, and the support he relies on starts to feel more fragile than ever. When a final rejection pushes Jac to his breaking point, he hurls himself into oblivion, testing the limits of both his body and his mind.
Will those he loves stand by him when it matters most? Written and performed by Leo Drayton, Dynolwaith is a deeply personal and heartfelt Welsh-language story of self-discovery, resilience, and transformation that will resonate long after the curtain falls.
