GRIP OF LIFE by Noni Lewis

A new play by Noni Lewis

Directed by Matthew Holmquist

What is it to be a woman in mid-life?

If anyone has worked this out, could they please tell
Eleanor and Sophie so they can get out of this creepy little room?

Join the most famous Welsh actress you’ve probably never
heard of and the least famous Welsh actress working today as they try to figure
It out, with almost 100 years of history to separate them.
A co-production with The Riverfront Theatre, Newport

Supported by Arts Council Wales and Theatrau Sîr Gar
Contains references to death and grief.

Drama newydd gan Noni Lewis

Cyfarwyddwr: Matthew Holmquist

Sut beth yw bod yn fenyw ganol oed?

Gallai unrhyw un gydag ateb ei rannu gyda Eleanor a Sophie
Er mwyn iddyn nhw allu ffoi o'r ystafell fach ddychrynllyd yma?

Dewch i ymuno â'r actores Gymreig enwocaf nad ydych chi
erioed wedi clywed amdani, a'r actores broffesiynol Gymreig leiaf enwog heddiw
Wrth iddyn nhw geisio datrys y cwestiwn, gyda bron I gan mlynedd o hanes yn EU
Gwahanu.

Cyd-gynhyrchiad gyda Riverfront Theatre, Casnewydd

Cefnogir gan Gyngor Celfyddydau Cymru a Theatrau Sîr Gâr
