A very special screening of Cyrchfan Cyfiawnder, the 1988 S4C drama-documentary commemorating the 150th anniversary of the Newport Rising. This remarkable production included a large-scale community opera featuring schools and choirs from across the South East Wales Valleys. It was directed by Colin Thomas and presented by the late Professor Gwyn Alf Williams, a key figure in the groundbreaking television history of Wales. We’re delighted to announce that Colin Thomas and members of the original production team, including Angela Graham and Sian Gale, will be joining us for a Q&A following the screening.

The screening is in both Welsh and English, with plenty of support for non-Welsh speakers. It’s an ideal opportunity for Welsh learners, history enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the Chartist story to delve into this piece of heritage.

Tickets are Free/Pay What You Want, and all donations support the charity, Our Chartist Heritage.
