Directed by Arwel Gruffydd, ‘Sgint’ will be the first new production of Theatr Genedlaethol Cymru’s Artistic Director since he took over the stewardship of the company in May this year.
The play, set in Caernarfon, will be one of the key opening events of Sherman Cymru’s opening season in their newly redeveloped building in Cardiff.
Over the past eighteen months, playwright Bethan Marlow has interviewed a variety of Caernarfon residents – a teacher, an entrepreneur, a politician and a single mum to name but a few. The interviews were then crafted to form this authentic and original response to the issues of the pound in people’s pockets.
Arwel Gruffydd, Theatr Genedlaethol Cymru’s Artistic Director said: “’Sgint’ will be a theatrical event unseen until now in Welsh, where people’s voices will be heard on stage in a way they’ve never been before; raw, honest, and from the heart. Although we’ll be working with professional actors, this will be a mirror held up to real life that will be sometimes brutal, and difficult to view - there are some unpalatable home truths here."
