All of this year's six shows will take place in the Volcano window on Swansea High Street. CHECK OUT THE WHOLE PROGRAMME!If you had wings, what would you do to change the future? Inspired by the Wim Wenders film Wings of Desire, an angel emerges from the rubble of a war-torn future High Street, where she once listened to the thoughts of its inhabitants and comforted them in their distress. Isolated and frozen in time, she seeks new human connections for whom to build a peaceful future.
ANGHARAD MATTHEWS is a theatre maker, designer and performer who is returning to live in Wales after almost a decade in Berlin, where she studied devised theatre and performance practices at LISPA (now Arthaus Berlin) under the guidance of Thomas Prattki, former pedagogical director of the École Jacques Lecoq in Paris.

Pe bai gennych chi adenydd, beth fyddech chi'n ei wneud i newid y dyfodol? Wedi'i hysbrydoli gan ffilm Wim Wenders, *Wings of Desire*, mae angel yn ymddangos o blith rwbel Stryd Fawr yn y dyfodol sydd wedi'i difrodi gan ryfel; dyma le lle bu'n gwrando ar feddyliau'r trigolion ac yn eu cysuro yn eu trallod ar un adeg. Yn ynysig ac wedi'i rhewi mewn amser, mae hi'n chwilio am gysylltiadau dynol newydd er mwyn adeiladu dyfodol heddychlon gyda nhw.
Mae ANGHARAD MATTHEWS yn wneuthurwr theatr, yn ddylunydd ac yn berfformiwr sy'n dychwelyd i fyw yng Nghymru ar ôl bron i ddegawd yn Berlin. Yno, astudiodd theatr ddyfeisiedig ac arferion perfformio yn LISPA (sydd bellach yn Arthaus Berlin) dan arweiniad Thomas Prattki, cyn-gyfarwyddwr pedagogaidd yr École Jacques Lecoq ym Mharis.
