Dygwyl y Meirw (Festival of the Dead)



Sunday 28 October - Thursday 15 November


Dygwyl y Meirw (Festival of the Dead) is a winter’s tale..

Taid isn’t here any more – but, up in the attic cupboards, his stories are ready to be discovered…

A celebration of our ancestors and Celtic Festival of the Dead traditions – told with the help of Welsh ‘bwci-bo’ characters the Black Sow, the White Lady and Jack the Lantern. Puppets, magic, music – and spooky shadows…

A Welsh language puppet show suitable for ages 4+ presented by Seren Ddu a Mwnci.
