Artistic Statement

Our mission is to ignite the imagination and enrich the lives of audiences that experience the performances. We do this through engaging high quality theatre in Welsh and English and a creative programme of learning and participation for all ages.

Theatr na n’Óg is defined by its artistic and education work. Theatr na n’Óg’s work should be emotionally engaging, and  always tell a good story never to be forgotten.

The work strives to be:

• Resonant – to provoke ideas, thoughts, questions about yourself and the world
• Engaging – to stir your emotions & spark your imagination
• Fun, exciting & entertaining – serious purpose that lifts your spirits

We produce touring theatre productions for children of all ages, available to schools throughout Bridgend, Swansea and Neath & Port Talbot. The company also tours its schools productions to theatres throughout Wales and the UK and produce a four month residency project based at the Dylan Thomas Theatre in Swansea, enabling the company to create an excellent educational and high quality theatrical experience.

The company also produce larger touring theatre productions of new writing and adaptations of classic works for all ages and audiences. Although larger in scale these productions maintain the attention to detail, intimacy and clear communication, which are so effective in our schools productions. Theatr na n'Óg have developed an extensive outreach programme including drama clubs, workshops and drama training.
