Zaru ‘Zhubat’ Jonson!

Our (in)famous open mic kicks off at 7pm with a host of the best Spoken Word, Musicians, Comedians and more!

As always it’s £3 on the door with our picnic buffet at Un Deg Un. 8th February 2016

Zaru Jonson has been performing words regularly since being awarded the second place and audience vote prizes at Literature Wales’ John Tripp Award for Spoken Poetry, 2009. Under various names, he has since read at the Edinburgh Free Fringe, Dinefwr Literature Festival, Cheltenham Poetry Festival, and two or three hundred-odd other open mics, exhibition openings, protests, hip-hop nights and miscellaneous events, often clustered around Cardiff. During 2014, he took part in the ‘Dylan Live / Dylan ar Daith’ tour in celebration of Dylan Thomas’ centenary, playing at eight universities around Wales, the Dylan In Fitzrovia Festival in London, and the PEN International Literature Festival in New York City (alongside Mr Phormula, Martin Daws and Professor Daniel Williams.)

Zaru likes dogs, believes in a god, and is incurably sincere. Recently he returned from Canada, where he avoided everything and picked hazelnuts.

Talking Doorsteps is a project set up by The Roundhouse Theatre, and thanks to both the Roundhouse and NTW TEAM it will be taking place in Cardiff.It’s a 3 day program where 8 lucky people will be given the chance to take part in some workshops with a Roundhouse Poet. These will be used to create and develop a piece of work. Participants will be filmed in a variety of locations around Cardiff performing their pieces, which will be put online by The Roundhouse on their website & YouTube Channel. Two people from this project will then be chosen to represent Wales in ‘Last Word’ Festival. . . All travel and accommodation will be covered for the duration of project.

Silent State is a theatrical adventure which combines live performance, intrigue and a treasure hunt-like game requiring participants to follow the adventure around several secret locations in Wrexham town centre. This is immersive theatre on a new level!

Working in combination with exciting gaming production company Yellobrick, plus reuniting with writer Ben Gwalchmai (who penned 3 episodes of our Soap Opera Nine Stories High!) – this new theatrical experience requires you to imagine a life without music. The setting is bleak: Wrexham is transformed into a dystopian, Orwellian, Hunger Games world where we need you to join the resistance – and put an end to the silence. Welcome to <B>Silent State</B>.

http://www.wno.org.uk/event/silent-state

Tickets £5 available NOW from: http://www.silentstate.eventbrite.co.uk

3 Start Times: 11.30am, 3pm & 6.30pm on Saturday 10th May (each performance lasts approx. 1½ hours) Ages 14+

Music has been banned and silence pervades the streets of Wrexham. It is a very different place, regimented and controlled, whilst the black market thrives with secret traders dealing in bootleg musical experiences. Anyone seen cavorting, making melodic merry or moving rhythmically are immediately detained. Being caught in possession of musical artefacts of any kind comes with a very high price. But there is hope … rumours are spreading behind closed doors of a resistance. A resistance against the silence. The time has come to make a stand. Are you ready?
