Wales at the Fringe, a new take on old tales and poems to save the Earth

Gary Raymond and guests critics review the latest from the arts and popular culture scene in Wales.

Gary Raymond and guests critics review the latest from the arts and popular culture scene in Wales. This month Gary is joined by poet and academic Kate North and novelist and dramatist David Llewellyn.

The panel take a look at the Welsh productions at the Edinburgh Fringe that can be enjoyed from home - National Theatre Wales' Possible, a one-man play from Shon Dale Jones and FOW, a digital production created by the partnership of Deaf and Fabulous and Taking Flight.

They explore the new anthology 100 Poems to Save the Earth, and ask if poetry is the best art form to respond to the climate crisis.

And they give their views on Mabinogi: Lost Legends and Dark Magic, Lucy Catherine’s sumptuous radio and podcast adaptation of the Red Book of Hergest from the Mabinogion which combines dry humour and high fantasy for a blockbuster feel.
