Theatr Soffa is back with opportunities to participate in Welsh and English online performances of ‘Nadolig Plentyn yng Nghymru’ / ‘A Childs Christmas in Wales’ by Dylan Thomas.

Arts charity SPAN Arts is delighted to announce the return of their virtual community theatre group ‘Theatr Soffa’.

Working with Menter Iaith Sir Benfro and Cered, the group produced highly successful versions of Under Milk Wood, Dan y Wenallt and Dracula among others during the lockdown periods of 2020 and 2021 and are looking forward to a new challenge.

This autumn SPAN are offering a new opportunity to be part of this unique season of rehearsal and livestreamed performances to brighten up the darker evenings.

Auditions for Welsh language cast will be held on September 22 and for the English language cast on September 24.
