Looking for some PA support for a development day with Mess Up The Mess Theatre Company and The Rising Stars Theatre Company in Ammanford on the 26th of May, 9:30-12:30. Must be able to drive. Anyone interested?
I’m very wary of asking young creatives to do things for ‘experience’ but I’m doing a read through of a new TV pilot, aimed at teen and young adult audiences next Tuesday at Chapter.
Looking for some emerging actors to read the following parts. This will take just over two hours of your time, and I’ll buy you a coffee. Playing age in brackets, all actors should be 18 or over
Owain (17) (Male identifying)
Leah (16) (Female identifying)
Hannah (16) (Female identifying)
Message if interested!
I’ve written a short play for this event at Neath Little Theatre. It would be great to see a few of you there! Looking forward to seeing the other pieces as well!

The Palsy Podcast concludes with a turning of the tables. Previous guest Liv Woodward interviews me (!) about my life, career and The Palsy Podcast. Here’s a bio then I suppose.
I am an RTS Cymru Award Winning Playwright and Screenwriter. My TV series 'BWMP' is the first in the Welsh language with a Disabled Protagonist. I have also written for the Sherman Theatre, Theatr Clwyd, and been a part of the WriteWild development scheme for underrepresented writers.

I’m a bit gutted that this is the last episode, but continuing this daily is wholly unsustainable. I hope you’ve enjoyed listening to all the interviews over the month, and who knows, maybe I’ll do it again next year. Overall, I hope I’ve raised some awareness of cerebral palsy, and given an insight into what life is like living with CP.
I am joined on the penultimate episode of The Palsy Podcast by Jadeelizabeth Owen. Jade talks about her experiences growing up with Cerebral Palsy, and having surgeries as a child. Jade and Ciaran discuss disability advocacy and what can be done to curb the recent rise in disability hate crime.
