the Magistrate
Academy Award nominee and Tony Award-winner John Lithgow takes the title role in Arthur Wing Pinero’s uproarious Victorian farce, directed by Olivier Award-winner Timothy Sheader.
The Magistrate is sure to have audiences doubled up with laughter. When amiable magistrate Posket (John Lithgow) marries Agatha (Olivier Award-winner Nancy Carroll), little does he realise she’s dropped five years from her age – and her son’s. When her deception looks set to be revealed, it sparks a series of hilarious indignities and outrageous mishaps.

alaska
Alaska: one of the last great frontiers of the modern world. One man goes in search of adventure, freedom and ‘a piece of the good life’, but soon finds that the reality is no picnic. Plummeting temperatures, technical disasters and a severe lack of any practical skills whatsoever soon plunge our hero into a nightmarish world of extreme survival, haunted by all things living, dead and Athabascan.
A whole host of forest wildlife and one hell of a soundtrack transport you into The Unknown - Alaska is a tragi-comic riot of Pythonesque dottiness guaranteed to leave you spellbound. Come prepared. It’s going to be Wild...
Mae un dyn yn chwilio am anturiaeth, rhyddid a’r ‘bywyd da’ ond yn fuan mae’n ffeindio nad yw’r realiti yn bicnic. Yn defnyddio ffilm, golau tân, cysgod, bywyd gwyllt y fforest a thrac sain gwych, dyma sioe drasig-gomig sy’n sicr o’ch syfrdanu.

hi-de-hi!
By Paul Carpenter and Ian GowerAdapted from the original television series by Jimmy Perry and David Croft
Revisit the 1950’s and Maplins Holiday Camp in this stage adaptation of the hugely popular TV series. Joe Maplin announces that he is setting up a camp in the Bahamas. He needs female yellowcoats to go and work out there and the annual ‘Miss Yellowcoat’ competition will decide who is to go. Sylvia and Gladys are joint frontrunners to win the coveted yellow sash but cleaner Peggy convinces Entertainments Manager Jeffrey that she is the ideal candidate for the job… Following on from last year’s sell-out production of ‘Allo ‘Allo, Castaway return to say: Hi-De-Hi, campers!
Yn dilyn llwyddiant ysgubol eu cynhyrchiad y llynedd mae Theatr Gymunedol Castaway y Ganolfan yn cyflwyno addasiad o’r gyfres deledu hynod boblogaidd.

forced entertainMent
the coMing storM
International innovators Forced Entertainment tangle and cross-cut multiple stories to make a compelling and unstable performance. From love and death to sex and laundry, personal anecdotes rub shoulders with imaginary movies, and half-remembered novels bump into distorted fairytales. Six performers create, collaborate, ambush and disrupt this epic saga. The result is comical, contradictory and poignant; full of wrong- headed tricks, broken dances, sleazy drum interruptions and perfunctory piano accompaniment.
Post show talk after the Thursday performance.

Chwefror, 1963. Roedd y Gymraeg ar drengi. Heb statws swyddogol na hawl yn y byd. Roedd ffigyrau’r cyfrifiad diweddar yn arwyddo’i diwedd buan. Yn Aberystwyth daeth criw o Gymry ifanc ynghyd. Roedd tân yn eu boliau ac ysbryd chwyldro yn y tir, a neb ohonynt am fynd adref y diwrnod hwnnw nes bod cwrs hanes wedi’i wyrdroi.
Chwefror, 2013. Ar ôl cwrdd dros y we, mae bachgen a merch ifanc yn trefnu i ddod wyneb yn wyneb am y tro cyntaf ar Bont Trefechan, Aberystwyth. Mae’r ddau am ddeall yn union beth ddigwyddodd yno hanner can mlynedd ynghynt. Ond nid yw’r cyfarfod mor felys â’r disgwyl. Wrth i’r tensiwn gynyddu, tybed mewn gwirionedd oes gobaith i gariad flaguro ar y bont?
Bydd y perfformiad unigryw hwn, yn gwau trwy strydoedd Aberystwyth, yn plethu theatr byw gyda ffilm, technoleg ddigidol, a chyfryngau cymdeithasol. Bydd yn ymweld â chaffis y ‘chwyldro’, yn dod â’r presennol â’r gorffennol ynghyd, ac yn holi beth yw arwyddocâd protest Pont Trefechan i genhedlaeth newydd o Gymry?
Un Diwrnod. Un weithred arwrol. Un perfformiad yn unig. 1963 / 2013...oeddech chi ar y bont? Gwisgwch yn addas i’r tywydd.
A one-off, promenade performance through the streets of Aberystwyth, marking the 50th anniversary of the first ever non-violent, direct action protest for equal rights for the Welsh language. Please dress appropriately for the weather.

Ghost Track is a one hour solo performance that braids the image of a Foley artist as storyteller in response to the 1971 Peter Brook’s stark, existential version of King Lear and draws upon the ‘father’ of psychoanalysis Sigmund Freud.
Following the live performance will be Kong Lear, a 12 minute Super 8mm silent film which, as well as a play on words, is a humorous and touching film referencing King Lear’s madness upon some mythologised heath.

Dau gan mlynedd ar ôl cyhoeddi’r casgliad cyntaf o straeon tylwyth teg y Brodyr Grimm, mae tri meistr ar adrodd straeon cyfoes yn creu byd metafforaidd o foesoldeb cysefin yn erbyn cefndir o gerddoriaeth atgofus.

Dubious political dealings, a rioting populace, mishandled money, panic - sound familiar? The Government Inspector is one of the world’s most famous plays. Written in 1835, and set in Tsarist Russia, it is a classic satire on human vanity. By turns hilarious and vicious in its expose of corruption among those in power, this masterpiece seems made for the times we now live in.
The Governor is worried. All night he has dreamt of huge rats trying to devour him. Now, today, he has heard of a Government Inspector who is arriving imminently in the district. The town officials are called together and told to waste no time in cleaning up their act - shredding incriminating documents, issuing gagging orders, blacking out of the media - they all have to work together,

and fast, to cover up the corruption that’s been going on for years. Bribes, misdirected contracts, misallocation of public money, fiddled expenses, abuses of office.
This fast-paced, raucously entertaining black comedy features an electrifying cast and live Balkan-fused music including electric balalaikas and mouth organs!
Directed by Gerry Mulgrew, founder of Communicado, and adapted by Adrian Mitchell, originally for the National Theatre. Gerry won a 2009-10 Critics’ Awards for Theatre in Scotland for his previous production. Aberystwyth Arts Centre’s touring productions have included the critically acclaimed ‘Wuthering Heights’ and ‘Great Expectations.’

“This period-set Government Inspector is not good – it’s great” The Observer
Gweithredu gwleidyddol amheus, terfysgoedd ymysg y bobl, arian brwnt, panig - swnio’n gyfarwydd? ‘The Government Inspector’ yw un o ddramâu mwyaf enwog y byd. Wedi’i hysgrifennu ym 1835, ac wedi’i gosod yn y Rwsia Tsaraidd, mae’n ddychan clasurol ar falchder dynol. Yn hynod doniol ac hefyd yn filain yn y ffordd y mae’n datgelu llygredd ymysg y sawl sydd mewn pwer, mae’r campwaith hwn yn gwbl berthnasol i’r byd sydd ohoni heddiw.
This production has been made possible thanks to funding support from Arts Council Wales and Creative Scotland. The production will open in Aberystwyth Arts Centre at the end of February, before touring to Wales, England and Scotland.

There she meets the strange, sardonic and intriguing Mr Rochester. Can the constraints of society and the dark past be overcome? Should Jane trust her head or follow her heart?

A new play by Alan Bennett
Award-winning writer Alan Bennett is reunited with director Nicholas Hytner and Olivier Award-winning actress Frances de la Tour, with whom he worked on The History Boys and The Habit of Art. Alan Bennett is one of Britain’s most celebrated playwrights, and the much anticipated People is the sixth of his plays to have its premiere at the National Theatre.
People spoil things; there are so many of them and the last thing one wants is them traipsing through one’s house. But with the park a jungle and a bath on the billiard table, what is one to do? Dorothy (Frances de la Tour) wonders if an attic sale could be a solution.
‘Wonderfully funny... a grand evening. Dorothy is Frances de la Tour, in the best part Alan Bennett has written for her.’ The Times

Originally commissioned by the Royal Shakespare Company in 1980, Educating Rita won a Comedy of the Year award in the West End where it ran for over two years. It subsequently became a BAFTA award winning film starring Michael Caine and Julie Walters.
Yn bryfoclyd, yn ddoniol ac yn deimladwy, dyma fersiwn newydd o gampwaith comig clasurol Willy Russell.

A new play by James Graham
It’s 1974 and the corridors of Westminster ring with the sound of infighting and backbiting as Britain’s political parties battle to change the future of the nation, whatever it takes. In this hung parliament, the ruling party holds on by a thread. Votes are won and lost by one, fist fights erupt in the bars, and ill MPs are hauled in to cast their votes.
James Graham’s biting, energetic and critically-acclaimed new play strips politics down to the practical realities.

One day Bill discovered that the number 1 on the day he was born was Grandad by Clive Dunn, a song so bad, in so many ways, that it is in its own way remarkable.

betrayal
By Harold PinterJerry and Emma love each other, and their love weaves a labyrinth of betrayals that extend beyond the relationship and touch something at the heart of every living creature. Emma betrays her husband; Jerry betrays his best friend and also his own wife, Judith. But it turns out that Robert has been betraying Emma with other women. Jerry, an author’s agent, and Robert, a publisher, are successful figures in the publishing world, but Pinter hints that their careers are also betrayals of a deeper vision that they once had. Their civilised acceptance of these endlessly breeding betrayals finally creates a quiet revulsion that brings the affair to a desolate close.

A stunning virtuoso delivery of the greatest story ever told. Acclaimed by critics and audiences in theatres and churches throughout the UK, award-winning actor George Dillon presents an unforgettable vision of Jesus in his highly intense, very human and occasionally humorous solo staging of the first Gospel, with an original musical score and video background.
Short-listed for The Stage’s ‘Best Actor’ Award in Edinburgh, Dillon’s epic, impassioned performance portrays Jesus not as a meek and mild lamb to the slaughter but as a contemporary raging fighter for God.

Many people take the features of our towns for granted without ever considering the important work that takes place in the planning stage. Why, for example, are modern lamp posts so tall or the spaces in car parks so maddeningly narrow? The questions multiply when we consider examples beyond these shores and look at rickshaw ranks, camel parks and dhow moorings.
After too long an absence from the Open Platform stage, Jez Danks returns with a no-holds-barred investigation that promises to enthral both urban and rural dwellers alike. As ever, the show will be peppered with music and song.

the skriker
By Caryl Churchill
The story of an ancient fairy who, during the course of the play, transforms into a plethora of objects and people as it pursues Lily and Josie, two teenage mothers whom it befriends, manipulates, seduces and entraps. Whilst speaking English in its human incarnations, the Skriker’s own language consists of broken and fragmented word play. Blending naturalism, horror and magical realism, it is a story of love, loss and revenge.

loVe & Money
A play by Dennis KellyDirected by Ryan Romain
Debt. Desire. Love and money. David is online, hoping to kindle a new relationship. Love is only a click away, but a shocking admission begins to unravel his past piece by chilling piece. Believing happiness can be bought in a world of easy finance and materialism, possessions become irresistible. But at what cost?
Funny yet heart wrenching, Kelly’s dark comedy portrays a dislocated view of the world we live in, the risks we face, and the lengths we go in search of happiness.
Comedi dywyll ddigrif ond teimladwy yn portreadu darlun cymysglyd o’r byd yr ydym yn byw ynddo, y risgiau yr ydym yn wynebu, a’r pethau yr ydym yn barod i wneud er mwyn dod o hyd i hapusrwydd.

eight songs for a Mad king
Eight Songs for a Mad King Peter Maxwell DaivesPing Vasco Mendonça
More than 20 years before the film and play The Madness of George III caught the public’s imagination, composer Sir Peter Maxwell Davies immortalised the monarch’s descent into dementia and delusion in this classic piece of music theatre, and a disturbing and poignant portrayal of madness. Welsh baritone Kelvin Thomas reprises the virtuoso lead role that he has made his own. Vasco Mendonça’s compelling new setting of Samuel Beckett’s monologue Ping combines live performance with digital sound and video scenography - a work at the cutting edge of contemporary European music theatre.
Yn nodweddu’r baritôn o Gymru Kelvin Thomas yn y brif rôl. Perfformir ‘Eight Songs’ ochr yn ochr ag addasiad cymhellol o fonolog gan Samuel Beckett.

aston’s stones
From a book by Lotta Geffenblad
A story about a little dog who wants to take care of all the stones he can find. Some are big and some are small. One is sad and another one feels cold. All of them need to be taken care of! Every stone gets to follow Aston home and is greeted with a warm and cosy bed. His two parents, although very patient and understanding, gradually get more and more worried about the increasing number of stones in their livingroom.
This story is about how easy it is to love and to see and to appreciate the value in small things - even in a little stone. Performed in English. For children age 3-6 years Duration: 30 minutes

andrzeJ Jackowski: paintings, drawings and prints
Andrzej Jackowski’s work explores personal and collective memory, examining the identities and cultures which are passed on through generations. Many of his paintings have drawn on his own experiences of dispossession, distant recollections of a family history in Poland and the first eleven years of his life spent in a refugee camp. These, along with photograph albums and other ephemera provide the raw materials for his images.In association with Purdy Hicks Gallery and Northumbria University Gallery
Mae gwaith Andrzej Jackowski yn archwilio cof personol ac ar y cyd, yn edrych ar yr hunaniaethau a’r diwylliannau sy’n cael eu trosglwyddo o un genhedlaeth i’r nesaf. Mae llawer o’i baentiadau wedi tynnu ar ei brofiad ei hun o ddifeddiant, atgofion pell o hanes teulu yng Ngwlad Pwyl a’r unarddeg mlynedd cyntaf o’i fywyd a dreulwyd mewn gwersyll ffoaduriaid. Mae’r rhain, ynghyd ag albymau ffotograffau ac effemera arall yn darparu’rdeunyddiau crai argyfer ei ddelweddau.

bathing beauties
This exhibition shows over 100 models of extraordinary beach huts, originally made in competition for a commission; the brief for which was to re-imagine this humble structure for the 21st century.
Traditional seaside references are largely gone, replaced by structures incorporating wind turbines, saunas, camera obscura, viewing platforms and space-age materials; with only a glimpse of sandcastle and stripey deckchair references.
The models are presented at scale 1:15 and in addition one full scale beach hut will be on show, ‘Oyster Pleasance’, designed by The Beach Hut Salon (a collaboration between architect Will Alsop and A-Models).
This exhibition coincides with the first Wales Aberystwyth Festival of Architecture, see page 43.National Centre for Craft & Design
Mae’r arddangosfa hon yn dangos dros 100 o fodelau o gytiau traeth eithriadol, a wnaethpwyd yn wreiddiol ar gyfer cystadleuaeth am gomisiwn; y brîff oedd i ail- ddychmygu’r adeilad diymhongar hwn ar gyfer yr unfed ganrif ar hugain. Mae’r hyn a ymddangosodd yn draddodiadol ar lan-y-môr wedi diflannu i raddau helaeth, ac yn eu lle gwelir tyrbeini gwynt, sawnas, camera obscura, platfformau gwylio a deunyddiau oes y gofod; gyda chipolwg yn unig o gestyll tywod a chadeiriau cynfas streipiau.
Cyflwynir y modelau ar raddfa 1:15 ac hefyd arddangosir un cwt traeth llawn maint, ‘Oyster Pleasance’, a ddylunwyd gan The Beach Hut Salon (prosiect ar y cyd rhwng y pensaer Will Alsop ac A-Models).

Catrin Davies & Lewis Wright(December 2012 - February 2013)Lewis and Catrin’s collaborative work often references the narratives found within the history of painting; the battle for power is a key theme as they examine human nature’s need to control.
Matthew Macaulay(December 2012 - February 2013)Matthew Macaulay is a painter whose work conveys his vision of the world through poetical narrative. His recent work tries to transcribe the sensation of his existence in the world into a single image.
Ingrid Schildermans (Belgium)(December 2012 - February 2013)Ingrid Schildermans’ current work focuses on plant life in
isolation, presented in pastiche paintings through which she tries to achieve ‘a ticket home to the garden of Eden’: the project ‘Imperium Ingrid Schildermans’ unfolds.
March, April & May 2013:Tim Skinner (March - May 2013)“While working in Aberystwyth my plan is to both visually and sonically embrace the repetitive rhythmical make-up of the surrounding local landscapes, with a view to creating a collection of video work that illustrates emotional attachment.”
Artists in Residence, from the UK and abroad, have their studios in Creative Units 1, 2 & 3 next to the Arts Centre. Each artist spends three months in Aberystwyth developing their work; during this time they give a public talk about their practice as well as holding an Open Studio at the end of their stay. All residencies take place thanks to additional funding and we are grateful to the Esmée Fairbairn Foundation, Laura Ashley, Garfield Weston, Charles Wallace Trust, Wales Arts International, Meduse Quebec, Finnish Art Studio and Umbrella Arts Australia.

• talks and films ranging from a documentary of Charles Correa’s work in deprived areas of India, to the 2010 film ‘How much does your building weigh, Mr Foster?’
• Discussions will have a strong local dimension and look at the impact that development has on local distinctiveness
• Design workshops available for local secondary school pupils • Linking in with the exhibition ‘Bathing Beauties’ in Gallery 1,
activities for families will include workshops to build your own beach hut!
