In August 2020, during the Covid-19 Pandemic, we were able to launch a festival of interactive community theatre to people staying at home. Funded by the “Get Creative at Home” scheme, SGRIPTŶOFEST was a live streamed bilingual festival of new writing from Aberystwyth and beyond. Eight new pieces of writing from community playwrights were filmed in and around people’s homes via video conferencing calls. The participants were of all ages and backgrounds, from experienced actors and playwrights to those who were writing, acting or directing for the first time. 

The livestream was also a fundraiser for the Anna Evans Community Arts Grant, which was founded last year, and over £500 was raised on the night to support Ceredigion community arts projects.  

You can watch each of the eight short films, as well as the entire live show over on our YouTube Page.
