West Glamorgan Youth Theatre Company South Wales based youth theatre providing quality performance experiences to young people aged 13-21. No: 1195126.

West Glamorgan Youth Theatre Company exists to provide quality performance experiences for young people in the South Wales area. Twice a year we meet at a residential centre, where the students experience an intensive rehearsal period. The Company is run by an Artistic Directorate, responsible for ensuring a varied and challenging programme of study for participants. The aim of the work is to broaden students knowledge of dramatic text by focusing on less traditional, ‘popular’ youth productions. wgytc also prides itself in creating work for a variety of venues across the counties, ranging from Arts Centres to schools and outdoor spaces. Past students have gone on to work in a huge range of professions, many of which are not theatre based, but all participants look at the personal and social skills learnt as part of the Company, as being key to their successes. The alumni also boasts a wealth of theatre practitioners; there are few West End productions that are not represented by one of our members either on or off stage. Further information is available on our website www.wgytc.co.uk

Taliesin Arts Centre
Tickets are available now - https://www.taliesinartscentre.co.uk/en/all-events?id=60937

A funny, heartfelt and deeply moving musical, The Theory of Relativity explores the invisible threads that connect us all. Through a series of powerful songs, scenes and monologues, we meet an unforgettable collection of characters navigating love, loss, family, friendship, identity and everything that makes us human. Join us for an evening celebrating connection, community and the stories that make us who we are.

This amateur production is presented by arrangement with Music Theatre International. All authorised performance materials are also supplied by MTI.

……..
We’re also thrilled to present a brand new piece of writing by Lorien Tear An immersive promenade performance in the heart of Swansea.

At any given moment, in the middle of a city, a million epiphanies are unfolding.
As the clock freezes in the small hours, we meet nineteen people across Swansea, each searching for peace. One by one, we step directly into their lives—lives that appear disconnected, yet are bound together by unseen moments, choices and chance encounters. Through laughter, silence and the wail of the night, their stories ripple, overlap and collide.

Swansea Civic Centre Offices, SA1 3SN
Tuesday 4 August 2026, 7:30pm
Wednesday 5 August 2026, 7:30pm
Tickets are available now www.ticketsource.com/wgytc1

Please note: this is an immersive promenade performance. Audiences will be guided through a series of spaces as the story unfolds, with limited seating available. Comfortable footwear is recommended.
