THEATR Y BYD is one of the longest serving companies dedicated to new writing in Wales. The company has been project funded by the Arts Council of Wales, and over ten years it has created a body of work which has made an important contribution to Welsh contemporary theatre. Four plays commissioned by the company have been published by Parthian, and in 2003 a further 3 scripts will be published. The company works closely with venues in Wales to build an audience for new writing, and has regularly toured Wales, Ireland, Scotland, England and France. The company employs some of the best designers working in Wales, and has developed a reputation for high production standards coupled with an innovative, yet accessable approach to text based work. Wales and the Welsh in the context of the wider World is a theme which continues to excite us, and as we look forward to a second decade, we reaffirm our commitment to work with writers, and to give voice to a Welsh perspective on a National and International Stage. |
