Brilliant production! Esme was mesmerized and loved all the sounds and sights. I would recommend it to everyone. — Esme’s mum

A Sarah Argent and Theatr Iolo co-production Cynhyrchiad Sarah Argent a Theatr Iolo

Perfformiad hudolus ac agos atoch ar gyfer babanod a phlant bach 6 – 18 mis oed (a’u hoedolion).

Parsel. Agor e… “Beth sy’ tu mewn?”

Chwarae â’r papur – crensian, rhwygo, siffrwd.

Yn cuddio… “Pi-po!”

Hiding… “Peekaboo!”

And then, one day, out of the blue, a wonderful surprise – the most special delivery of all…

This is an English language production. Sioe drwy gyfrwng y Saesneg yw hon.

Yn seiliedig ar stori Malala Yousafzai.

A yw hi wir yn bosib i un o ddarllenwyr y Guardian fod yn rhagfarnllyd?

Hydref 2012. Mae dynion arfog yn stopio bws ym Mhacistan ac yn saethu tair merch. Am eu bod nhw eisiau mynd i’r ysgol. Sut gall awdur ymateb i ddigwyddiad o’r fath?

Yn hollol anwybodus, ac yn gallu gwneud fawr ddim ond cyfleu ei ddicter, caiff ei orfodi i adael ei ddesg a mynd at y gymuned i chwilio am atebion - er mwyn gallu adrodd stori brwydr menyw ifanc ddewr dros addysg i ferched. Ar ôl i’w ymchwil ddatgelu agweddau sy’n mynd yn groes i’w ddaliadau rhyddfrydol ei hun, mae e hefyd yn gorfod dod i delerau â’r hyn y mae’n ei ddysgu amdano ef ei hun.

Ysgrifennwyd a pherfformiwyd gan Nick Wood. Cyfarwyddwyd gan Andrew Breakwell.

Based on the story of Malala Yousafzai.

Can a Guardian reader really be prejudiced?

It’s October 2012. Gunmen stop a bus in Pakistan and shoot three girls. For wanting to go to school. How can the writer respond?

Knowing nothing about the situation, able to offer little more than outrage he’s forced to come out from behind his desk and go into the community searching for answers to help him tell the story of a brave young woman’s fight for girls’ education. When his research uncovers attitudes at odds with his liberal convictions he also has to deal with what he learns about himself.

Written and performed by Nick Wood. Directed by Andrew Breakwell.

A show that shone as brightly as the stars in the night sky — Dave Owens, Media Wales

Profi ad theatrig hudolus am gyfeillgarwch, y lleuad a bod yn ddewr yn y tywyllwch i blant 2 – 5 oed a’u teuluoedd.

Mae Luna wedi difl asu i fyny yn yr awyr ar ei phen ei hun heb neb i chwarae â hi. Mae’n unig bod yn leuad - yr unig leuad.

Un noson, wrth iddi wibio ymysg y sêr, mae’n gweld bachgen bach yn cuddio rhag y cysgodion. Mae Luna yn penderfynu llithro i lawr o’r awyr i wneud ffrindiau gyda’r bachgen a gyda’i gilydd maen nhw’n mynd ar antur i’w helpu i oresgyn ei ofnau am y nos.

Dyfeisiwyd a chyfarwyddwyd gan Sarah Argent yn seiliedig ar syniad gwreiddiol gan Miranda Thain.

An enchanting theatre experience about friendship, the moon and being brave in the dark for 2 – 5 year olds and their families.

Luna is bored up in the sky by herself with nobody to play with. It’s certainly lonely being the only moon.

One night, as she’s racing among the stars, she spots a young boy hiding from shadows. Luna decides to slide down from the sky to make friends with the boy. Together they go on a night-time adventure to help him overcome his fear of the dark.

Devised and directed by Sarah Argent from an original story by Miranda Thain.

One marvellously unusual hour…Gym Party finds the sweet spot between pure play, sociopolitical satire and personal confession... sharp, silly and surprisingly tender

— The Times

Mae Gym Party yn gynhyrchiad craff, ychydig yn dywyll sy’n edrych ar ein dyhead cyffredinol i ennill.

Mae Chris, Jess ac Ira’n eofn yn eu hymrwymiad i wneud beth bynnag sydd ei angen yn y gemau sy’n arddangos eu doniau. Ond maent hefyd yn awyddus i rannu eu storïau, eu safbwyntiau a’u dawnsfeydd lletchwith.

Yn ddifyr, ystyrlon ac anarchaidd, mae Gym Party yn siarad ag unrhyw un sy’n pryderu am gyflwr y byd a sut yr ydym yn trin ein gilydd – ac yna mae neges drydar gan seleb twp yn tynnu ei sylw.

Mae’r sioe arloesol hon wedi swyno cynulleidfaoedd a beirniaid yn Llundain a Chaeredin.

Gym Party is a razor sharp and slightly dark exploration of our universal desire to win.

Chris, Jess and Ira fearlessly do whatever it takes to win – to please you, the audience. They are also eager to share their stories, perspectives and awkward dances in between.

Anarchic, comic and thoughtful, Gym Party speaks to anyone who frets about the state of the world and how we treat each other – and then gets distracted by a dumb celebrity tweet.

This groundbreaking show has thrilled audiences and critics in London and Edinburgh.

Amusing, gripping and riveting — Clare Brennan, The Observer

Yn dilyn ei lwyddiant ysgubol yng Ngŵyl Ymylol Caeredin, rydym yn falch i gyhoeddi y byddwn yn cefnogi Gaggle Babble unwaith eto – a’r tro hwn ar ei daith i wyliau’r Haf.

Yn fileinig o rywiol, yn reiat waedlyd, yn dywyll a llygredig gyda cherddoriaeth roc fyw. Gig theatr na welwyd ei fath o’r blaen.

Dewch i gwrdd â Mary: merch â chefndir cythryblus sydd wedi cael wythnos uffernol. Ac mae hi am rannu’r cyfan gyda chi! Cyfarfu’r Brodyr Grimm â Tarantino yn y stori serch gïaidd hon am ddau enaid coll, wedi’i seilio mewn tref lychlyd di-fywyd yn America’r 50au. I gyfeiliant ei band anhygoel The Missin’ Fingers ceir cariad, brad, llofruddiaeth a dialedd.

Gan Lucy Rivers. Cyfarwyddwyd gan Adele Thomas.

Following their incredible success at the Edinburgh Fringe, we’re proud to be supporting Gaggle Babble once more – this time on their Summer festivals tour.

Murderously sexy, riotously bloody, dark and debauched with Rockin’ live music. Gig-theatre like you’ve never seen before!

Meet Mary, a girl with a troubled past who’s had one hell of a week and she’s gonna tell you all about it! Grimms meets Tarantino in this brutal love story between two lost souls, set around a dusty dead-end town in 1950s America. Love, betrayal, murder, revenge and all accompanied by her incredible band The Missin’ Fingers.

By Lucy Rivers. Directed by Adele Thomas.

Comedi ddisglair, brathog a beiddgar sy’n edrych ar fywyd teuluol gan yr awdur adnabyddus Gary Owen.

Mae ’na deulu – Mam, Dad, dau o blant a Cadi y gath. Mae Dad yn dweud nad yw eisiau unrhyw ffwdan ar ei ben-blwydd. Felly mae Mam yn ei gymryd ar ei air: ni wna hi na’r plant DDIM BYD ar gyfer pen-blwydd Dad.

Ond, mae Dad yn gandryll nad oes neb wedi gwneud dim ar gyfer ei ben-blwydd. A phan fydd rhwystredigaeth Dad a phwer dinistriol y gath yn dod ynghyd, mae’n achosi anrhefn mewn aduniad teuluol.

Mae Pen-blwydd Poenus Pete yn gyfle perffaith i deuluoedd Cymraeg eu hiaith a theuluoedd sy’n dysgu Cymraeg rannu noson hwyliog yn y theatr gyda’i gilydd. Bydd Theatr Iolo yn cynnal rhaglen o weithgareddau ychwanegol i gyd-fynd â’r cynhyrchiad: o weithdai drama ac ysgrifennu creadigol mewn ysgolion i weithgareddau difyr cyn y perfformiad sydd wedi’u cynllunio’n arbennig ar gyfer teuluoedd sy’n dysgu Cymraeg. Bydd dysgwyr o bob oedran yn ehangu’u dealltwriaeth o eirfa a stori’r sioe wrth fwynhau.

12th June Mehefin – 12th July Gorffennaf

This is a Welsh language production. Sioe drwy gyfrwng y Gymraeg yw hon.

A sparkling and biting comedy with an outrageous look at family life from the acclaimed writer Gary Owen.

There’s a family – Mum, Dad, two children and Cadi the cat. Dad says he doesn’t want any fuss at all made for his birthday. So Mum takes him at his word: she and the kids don’t do ANYTHING for Dad’s birthday.

But, Dad is furious about no one doing anything for his birthday. And when Dad’s frustrations combine with the cat’s destructive power, chaos comes to a family gathering.

Pen-blwydd Poenus Pete is the perfect opportunity for Welsh speaking and Welsh learner families to enjoy a night in the theatre together. Theatr Iolo will also be hosting an exciting series of extra activities to coincide with this production: from drama and creative writing workshops in schools to entertaining pre-performance family activities designed to enhance the understanding of the language and story of the show for Welsh learners of all ages.
