Autumn 2020 Brochure

Theatr Clwyd Oct/Hyd - Dec/Rhag 2020

Hello.

Helo.

This season is going to be a little different (as you’d expect).

Mae’r tymor yma’n mynd i fod ychydig yn wahanol (fel y byddech yn disgwyl).

Every twist and turn of the past months changed our original plans for this Autumn. However in their place is something totally unexpected and really special.

We’ve converted the Emlyn Williams Theatre into a brilliant, physically distanced, comfortable new space for theatre, comedy and music (that will blow your socks off!).

Meanwhile the Anthony Hopkins Theatre has become a cinema until something a little magical happens for Christmas!

Come back when you’re ready - our doors are open again and we’ll look after you - our future’s brighter than our past.

Mae pob cam a thro yn ystod y misoedd diwethaf wedi newid ein cynlluniau gwreiddiol ni ar gyfer yr Hydref. Fodd bynnag, yn eu lle mae rhywbeth cwbl annisgwyl ac, arbennig iawn.

Rydyn ni wedi trawsnewid Theatr Emlyn Williams yn ofod newydd cyfforddus gwych sy’n galluogi cadw pellter corfforol ar gyfer theatr, comedi a cherddoriaeth (a fydd yn eich cyfareddu!). Yn y cyfamser, mae Theatr Anthony Hopkins wedi dod yn sinema eto nes bod rhywbeth hudolus iawn yn digwydd ar gyfer y Nadolig!

Dewch yn ôl pan rydych chi’n barod, mae ein drysau ni ar agor eto ac fe fyddwn ni’n gofalu amdanoch chi – mae ein dyfodol yn fwy disglair na’n gorffennol.

Thank You Mae eich haelioni a’ch rhoddion wedi ein helpu i gefnogi artistiaid llawrydd, y GIG, a phobl ifanc agored i niwed yn ystod yr argyfwng hwn.

Crëwyd ac ysgrifennwyd y gwaith yma’n benodol i gael ei berfformio a’i ffrydio o theatrau gwag.
