THEATR BARA CAWS present ‘100’     

THEATR BARA CAWS present ‘100’ Theatr Bara Caws is proud to present ‘100’ as their next production. This Welsh language adaptation of the play originally written by Neil Monaghan, Diene Petterle and Christopher Heimann has been authored by Elin Jones, daughter of the late great playwright Wil Sam Jones. An engaging mixture of movement and imagination, the piece promises to offer something sparklingly different but still vitally familiar to our Welsh audience. There are five actors in the production –
Ioan Gwyn, Mared Elliw Huws, Darren Stokes, Rhodri Trefor, Sioned Wyn. The show will be directed by Tony Llewelyn and choreographed by Sarah Mumford.

About ‘100’:

Imagine:
That you must choose one single memory from your life – everything else will be erased forever
Choose now:
From your whole life, from all you’ve ever done, felt or thought … what is the one thing you treasure most?
The characters in ‘100’ are forced to choose and re-enact their memories, using only their bodies. We are magically transported to a dramatic motorbike race, a South American rainforest and a London tube train as each character in turn tries to capture their memory for eternity.

Press:

‘….this breathtaking piece of theatre. I do believe I will remember it, in both my head and my heart, all of my life. It is a tiny, huge, simple, complex play that touched me in places I didn’t even know I had. (…) this play moved me more profoundly than anything I can remember seeing in theatre…’
The Scotsman, Edinburgh

‘Beautifully executed… its sheer unaffected simplicity is an integral part of its power… there is an energy and real connection here between actors and audience… this is a show that you will carry around with you long after you have left the theatre’
The Guardian, London
