Open Invitation
It is fantastic to be able to extend an open invitation to LGBTQIA+ people who live in north-west Wales to come along to Nyth (Frân Wen) in Bangor to meet other queer people, socialise, watch readings of queer plays and share opinions and views about those plays and what it means to be LGBTQIA+ in north-west Wales today.
What is GogLais?
The sessions that will take place in Nyth (Frân Wen) are part of GogLais, a new project by writer, Gareth Evans-Jones, which explores queer experiences in north-west Wales today.
And the hope is that your input will inspire a brand new play.
Content of the sessions:
Professional actors will perform pieces from the following queer plays:
- Wyneb yn Wyneb by Mike Povey (English translation will be available)
- Es & Flo by Jennifer Lunn
- 5 Guys Chillin' by Peter Darney
- Overflow by Travis Alabanza
- Vampire Lesbians of Sodom by Charles Busch
There will be a chance to discuss these plays and their themes, and to what extent they reflect experiences of queer life in north-west Wales.
And there will be an opportunity to socialize with others.
When
Wednesday 27 November: 7pm - 8.30pm
Wednesday 4 December: 7pm - 8.30pm
Wednesday 11 December: 7pm - 8.30pm
Wednesday 15 January 2025: 7pm - 8.30pm
Wednesday 22 January 2025: 7pm - 8.30pm
Aimed at who?
If you live in north-west Wales, your voice is so significant for this project, and it would be great to have you in the meetings.
The more diverse perspectives from all parts of the LGBTQIA+ community, the better!
Language of the event
The event will be held through the medium of Welsh mainly, but there will be simultaneous translation available to ensure that everyone of all levels of fluency in Welsh can take part in the event.
Long-term plans
After these initial sessions, you will have the opportunity to follow and contribute to the process of creating the play to ensure that your voices are really heard.
The play will be predominantly Welsh (and at times Wenglish!), but we encourage participants of all levels of ability to speak Welsh to come along - whether they are new speakers or completely fluent.
