Attendees of the recent Denbigh and Flint Show enjoyed an unusual treat: a theatrical performance at an agricultural event.

The performance was delivered courtesy of Menter Iaith Sir Ddinbych, a company that specialises in interactive pieces about historical Welsh figures and stories.

The one-woman performance, titled Gwlan Gwlan, revolved around the subject of wool - a fitting theme for an event full of sheep.

The storyline offered an insight into the history of wool through the eyes of Lady Llanofer, supposedly the first Welsh fashion icon and a wool ambassador in the nineteenth century.

Actress Catrin Morgan embraced the challenge of performing, in a canvas tent, amidst the raucous atmosphere of a county show outside.

Children, who sat on mats at the front of the audience space, were offered woollen clothes to wear for dress-up and were chatted with directly by Ms Morgan throughout the performance.

Two of the youngsters were given the opportunity to mime the movements of the wool production process with Lady Llanofer herself, covering shearing, sorting, breaking, combing, spinning, weaving, washing, drying, and dyeing.

The two performances of Gwlan Gwlan, which showcased the Welsh language in a live setting, were funded by Denbighshire Leisure via the UK government.

Another Menter Iaith Sir Ddinbych production is set to tour Denbighshire in the near future.

Annie Cwrt Mawr, a one-woman play based on the life of peace campaigner Annie Jane Hughes Griffiths, will be performed in English at Ruthin Gaol on Thursday, September 12, and in Welsh at Theatr John Ambrose, Rhuthun, on Friday, September 13.
