About the Event

Originally a radio script by Stuart Fortey (who wrote our other great World War One piece, ‘On Scarborough Front’) ‘The Kaiser and I’ is a two-hander centred on the platonic relationship between a ballroom dance teacher and her Prussian Army Officer pupil in Berlin in the run-up to and during the First World War.

The piece will be directed by Joe Harmston, and will feature Sonia Beck and David Lyndon, with original music composed by Andrew Griffiths. It will be designed by Sean Cavanagh and the choreography is by international ballroom dancing champion, Lissa Williams.

This will be a co-production with Pontardawe Arts Centre and is staged with the help of Ty Cerdd and NightOut.
