Watching my children watch theatre and dance is one of the most precious gifts this life has given me. To see them become absorbed in the magical world being portrayed before them, to see them follow the journey of the performers and be swept up in their imaginations, few things make my heart swell as much as this. Thursday 27th October we went to watch Cwmni'r Frân Wen's Dilyn Fi at Venue Cymru, Llandudno. My two year old sat captivated for the duration next to her little friend, also two. They shared giggles, cuddles and cheeky smiles throughout the performance as the two dancers opened up a world of make-believe and play before them. The set design, costume and ambience of the piece drew both children and adults in to witness this sweet story of a young girl who has just had a new baby brother. The soundscore was a particular highlight, giving life to the journey of the two performers, who played the balance of acting as children particularly well. The was space to imagine, space to play and space follow as the performers manipulated the set to create scenes of wonder and excitement for the mini audience members. My daughter rose to the call of this beautifully crafted performance and followed the dancers on their journey into imagination. We left anew, having experienced something lovely, we could not ask for much more on a Thursday morning.
