In a chapel service in rural Wales; all is not what it seems . . . A stage adaptation of one of the most celebrated and controversial short-story collections in the history of Anglo-Welsh literature. Originally published in 1915; the searing stories of My People ndash; darkly comic; poignant; with flashes of savagery ndash; exposed the hypocrisy and avarice nestling side-by-side in a Nonconformist community in the rural West Wales of the early 1900s.First produced n the centenary year of the publication of the original collection; this radical reimagining makes us question whether the events depicted in these remarkable stories are consigned to the past; or can we discern uncomfortable parallels in our modern life?This programme text edition was published to coincide with the world premiere of the stage adaptation on 5 November 2015 at Clwyd Theatr Cymru; in a co-production with Invertigo Theatre.
