BASED on the Mabinogi legend of Blodeuwedd, the original and stunning production Woman of Flowers will be performed at Cardigan’s Theatr Mwldan on Thursday, February 8 at 7.30pm.
Blodeuwedd isn’t like other women, conjured from wild flowers by the wizard Gwydion to be the perfect wife for the warrior prince Llew.
But nature’s wild waves surge in her blood and when the dark desires woven into her nature are awakened, the consequences are bloody for all around her.
Woman of Flowers is a strikingly poetic reimagining of the Mabinogi myth of Blodeuwedd by award-winning Welsh writer Siôn Eirian.
Eirian skilfully combines Saunders Lewis’s Welsh language verse drama of the same name with original material to create a captivating, dark fantasy.
Based in Wales, Theatr Pena’s primary focus is to create unique and meaningful performance experiences for their audiences and opportunities in theatre for women.
Supported by the Welsh Government and the Arts Council of Wales with additional support from Curo Advisers Limited and their strategic partners, this is an English language production, suitable for ages 12 and over.
Tickets to see Woman of Flowers are £14 (£12) (£3 mates rates) and are available to book from Theatr Mwldan’s box office on 01239 621200, online at www.mwldan.co.uk or via the new MWLDAN app.
