Theatr Twm o'r Nant - FIENNA (12 September 2020)
Theatr Bara Caws presents ‘FIENNA’ by Siôn Eirian.
Following the unmitigated successes of Garw (2015) and Yfory (2017) the award-winning playwright Siôn Eirian has been commissioned to write the third in his series of plays for Bara Caws.
This play will consist of three parts — a triptych — and the themes are race, boundaries, and how people and countries protect and force their identity on others. How has, and does, Central Europe deal with ‘Other-ness’?
This is a Welsh language production
Doors open 7:00pm. Starts 7.30pm.

Denbigh Plum Feast (3 October 2020)
The Denbigh Plum is a variety unique to the town, so it seems only right for us to honour it with its very own festival!
In 2019 the Vale of Clwyd Denbigh Plum joined the ranks of Champagne and Parma Ham in getting special EU protection against imitation and fraud.
The Denbigh Plum has become the 16th Welsh food product to awarded protected food name (PFN) status by the EC – and the first Welsh fruit.
The feast lasts all day, with a magnificent range of dishes on offer. Come and taste for yourself!
