    Storytelling conversation #4 with Phil Okwedy

    Storytelling conversation #4 with Phil Okwedy

    Phil Okwedy is currently on tour with the production company Adverse Camber with his new show The Gods Are All Here. I say 'new' but this show is a lock-down baby that was a couple of years in creation. I worked with Phil on the show and this is the story about how it grew from a glint in his eye to a funded touring production.

    This is another fascinating insight into the moment that someone knows that an uncomfortable shift into a creative lifestyle cannot be put off any longer.

    Storytelling Conversations #3 Jane Flood

    Storytelling Conversations #3 Jane Flood
    A great storytelling discussion with Jane Flood, who was one of the first people I met on my storytelling journey.

    We talk about landscape and mythology and how they can be dynamic and recognisable parts of our lives and how they can implicate and surprise us in our own daily lives.

    We discuss how Jane got into storytelling and how a recognition of the potency and reality of storytelling enriches our own experience and informs how we live our lives.

    Jane and I will be running Story-Land -Ritual on October 1st in Somerset. You can get more information here  It's  a one-day, in-person, experiential course to reconnect us with stories and each other. 

    Letting go is another important theme and we talk about how stepping back can be a dynamic force in our creative development and how, by stepping back consciously,  we can create a safe and dynamic place for the less experienced to develop and flourish.

    Storytelling Conversations #1 with Sharon Blackie

    Sharon Blackie is a writer and teacher who is on a mission to reconnect us to our mythical past and the landscape around us with academic rigour, openness, imagination and humour.

    This  conversation ranges wide and includes an exploration of the Peredur/Perceval story from the Welsh and French Arthurian cannon, a good look at the Cailleach - the wild, wise and scary old woman of Irish mythology, as well as how we can use these stories and our landscapes to reconnect to each other, our creativity and our time on the planet.

    Dydd Mercher y Mabinogi gyda Dafydd Davies Hughes

    Dydd Mercher y Mabinogi gyda Dafydd Davies Hughes

    Mae Dafydd wedi bod yn gyfarwydd gyda'r Mabinogi ers yn blentyn. Mae wedi crwydro'r dirwedd a dod i nabod y straeon a'u gweld nhw'n dod yn fyw wrth droedio'r tir a dod i'w nabod nhw 'trwy sodlau eu traed'. 

    Mae'n gweld y Mabinogi fel rhan o'n hunaniaeth fel Cymry a'r cymeriadau fel drych i ni'n hunain a'r ffordd rydym yn ymddwyn yn y byd. Wrth ymweld â'r llefydd mae'r stori yn sôn amdanynt mae bron yn amhosib teimlo mai 'yma ddigwyddodd hi'. Wrth adrodd, rhwng y storïwraig/wr a'r dirwedd a phwy bynnag sydd yn clustfeinio.

    Wrth dyfu gyda'r Mabinogi ffeindiodd bod cymeriadau gwahanol y straeon yn atseinio gyda'i fywyd ei hunan mewn ffyrdd gwahanol nes cyrraedd y rhyfelwr Zen Manawydan sydd yn dadwneud hud a lledrith wrth beidio â gweithredu. Y  mae Dafydd yn edmygydd o fersiwn Guto Dafis o hanes Manawydan.  Y mae cyfweliad gyda Guto nes ymlaen yn y gyfres.

    I gloi mae Dafydd yn dweud mai cwestiynau yw'r Mabinogi. Pwy oeddem ni, pwy ydyn ni a phwy ydyn ni am fod fel Cymry.

    Y mae Dafydd yn gyfarwyddwr Menter y Felin Uchaf ym Mhen Llŷn

    Dydd Mercher y Mabinogi gyda Tamar Williams

    Dydd Mercher y Mabinogi gyda Tamar Williams

    Cyfweliad ffraeth a threiddgar gyda'r storïwraig Tamar Eluned Williams www.tamarelunedwilliams.com  

    Mae hi'n sôn am ei thaith o'r theatr i'r chwedl a dod nôl i Gymru a'r deunydd oedd wedi bod yn rhan ohoni eirioed - y Mabinogi.

    Siaradon ni am rym y chwedlau arnon ni fel rhai sydd yn eu hadrodd a'r effaith ar y gynulleiddfa; natur 'carpiog' naratif y Mabinogi fel adlewyrchiad teg a deinamic y byd sydd ohoni; grym cymdeithasol chwedleua fel arf diwylliannol sydd yn gallu gwneud ei hunan yn anweladwy ac wedyn camu ar lwyfan fawr a llawer mwy.
