LIGHTBOX
Rosa-Johan Uddoh: Ye Olde Group Chat

15 May – 8 October

We’re welcoming the summer with a full programme of scorchers this month!

As part of Canada Cymru, you can enjoy Myfanwy MacLeod's exhibition The Botanist, Canadian Trinidadian Tony Law's hilarious and surreal absurdity on stage, and we take a look at modern Canadian cinema through the darkly comic eye of Don McKellar; the probing vision of David Cronenberg, and the perceptive layers of Sarah Polley.

We're also celebrating Pride Month with new film Mad About the Boy: The Noël Coward Story, exploring the gloriously Queer rebel in a straight world, Lady Bushra is back in our theatre for an evening of drag comedy cabaret, and Rendez Vous Dance bring What Songs May Do celebrating the diversity of love to a soundtrack of Nina Simone's evocative songs!

Celebrate contemporary Welsh music at Dafydd Owain’s ‘Uwch Dros y Pysgod’ album launch gig, enjoy an evening of fluid folk from Cardiff-based duo Jim Ghedi and Toby Hay presented by Newsoundwales, and from Brooklyn, we're also really excited to bring Astroturf Noise with their wildly fresh free improvisation. Not to be missed!
