 We are delighted to invite you to the launch of a new book by one of the UK's leading young storytellers.


Katy Cawkwell has developed a reputation for dramatic and powerful reworkings of epic material. Here she retells a classic tale from the great Welsh mythological cycle, the Mabinogion.


Rhiannon follows a woman’s journey from her world into our own, from eternal youth to mortal suffering, from passionate first love to the strength of love rediscovered, from vision to understanding.

 
Intertwined with her story are the stories of a young king, a brave farmer, an old traveller and a shadowy lord of the Otherworld.  Not to mention the nine trusted companions, the six treacherous midwives and one of the three golden shoemakers… 

Originally commissioned for the 2003 Festival At The Edge, and first performed at Beyond The Border in 2005, Katy Cawkwell’s 'Rhiannon' is now published in book form by Welsh independent press Parthian Books. 

The performance will be followed by a book signing in the Glass Room and the chance to meet the author over a glass of wine.
