Pwdin Reis are a band from West Wales who take their inspiration from Rockabilly - one of the earliest forms of rock and roll music. They blend styles from rhythm and blues, country, classic rock and roll, and even new wave to create a powerful musical fusion, complemented by gritty Welsh lyrics.
The band members are drawn from various musical backgrounds. Singer Betsan Haf Evans draws on her experience of performing in funk bands such as Kookamunga to drive the band at a pace with her powerful vocals. Guitarist and prolific songwriter Neil Rosser contributes the perfect accompaniment with forceful rhythm and soaring solos. Experienced drummer Rob Gillespie is perfectly at home providing a pounding beat while on double bass Norman Roberts leaves his classical and jazz roots behind to underpin the sound with some good old slap bass.
Audio description is a live commentary interspersed with the actors' dialogue. This is relayed via a headset linked to the infra-red audio system. There is a short 'programme notes' session, before the production, which explains the atmosphere, costumes, characters and action.
BSL
British Sign Language Performance
Signed performances are ideal for those who use sign language. Trained British Signed Language (BSL) signers usually stand to one side of the stage and interpret the script used by the performers at the same time as it is being performed.
R
Relaxed Screening/Performance
Open to everyone, but particularly appropriate for anyone who may find the usual theatre/cinema environment challenging, due to an Autism Spectrum Condition, a learning disability, or a fear of the dark, loud noises or confined spaces.
Relaxed Performances/Screenings provide a relaxed environment, where elements are adapted to reduce anxiety or stress. Lighting and sound levels are adjusted to soften their impact and there is a relaxed attitude to noise and leaving and re-entering the auditorium during the performance/screening.
Designated 'chill-out' areas are provided outside the auditorium with activities for people to use if being in the auditorium becomes overwhelming for them.
T
Touch Tour
A Touch Tour is ideal for blind and partially-sighted audiences to familiarise themselves with the set ahead of the performance.
C
Captioned Screening/Performance
Captions display dialogue on-screen (similar to subtitles) and also describe the audio or sound portion of a film/performance allowing audience members who are D/deaf or hard of hearing to follow the script and the action of the film/performance at the same time.
For live performances, the screen is positioned at the side of the stage.
