Dan ni wedi ei ddangos un o'r chwaraeon Shakespeare wahanol pob blwyddyn yn yr haf am mwy na ddau ddegawd. Oedd King Lear ein pumed ar hugain digwyddiad.
A note from our patron
In 1987 and 1988 I had the pleasure of acting in St Dogmaels in
Twelfth Night and The Merchant Of Venice. I remember vividly the magic
of performing in such a special spot and the feeling of community and
shared ambition that is at the centre of any thriving theatrical
enterprise. I am delighted and honoured to still be associated with
the company that is now celebrating its twenty fifth year. A special
moment for a unique enterprise. Here's to twenty five more.
