New Work in Wales
Nicola Heywood Thomas rounds up the new music and online theatre being produced in Wales - and the first tentative steps towards re-opening actual theatres after lockdown
As theatres tentatively begin to emerge from lockdown Nicola Heywood Thomas speaks to Andy Eagle from Cardiff’s Chapter Arts Centre about his plans for re-opening.
It’s the First Night of the Proms – albeit in a very different form from usual.

Musician and sound artist Jobina Tinnemans tells us how she’s been inspired by the wild places of Wales for her new album.
And Scott Arthur and Alice Eklund explain how they’ve been bringing artists and performers together in online forums for both creativity and support.
