Huge congratulations to Jimmy and his first professional set of performances at St Fagan's Food Festival on the weekend. It rained, it poured, and once or twice the sun shone! A soggy welcome to the world of Outdoor theatre. Well done Jimmy- you nailed it.

Some gorgeous pics here from last week's Talent Shack Shakespeare directed by Elise, with support from Steph. Showcasing the talents of two of our fab youth theatre members, of whom we are very proud, alongside Talent Shack young people. They all did so well  & took integrated access in their stride
Talent Shack is a brilliant Cardiff based, not-for-profit organisation bringing performing arts education to young people, set up by  agent, actress and all round powerhouse Shelley Barrett, we're delighted to be working with them.
As our own YT is taking a break this summer, we're pleased to be able to support two of our members to take part in Talent Shack's Shakespeare in a Week workshops, cast as Hermia & Puck, and very happy that Elise has been invited to direct the show!
Hope you enjoyed some wonderful weather over the Bank holiday. Don't forget that we'll be enjoying some awesome outdoor fun at Amgueddfa Cymru/ Museum Wales's St Fagan's Food Festival next month (13&14 September). Fingers crossed for similar weather.
