The Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama’s Richard Burton Company’s weeklong celebration of new writing returns in 2015 with four world premieres in Cardiff before transferring to the Gate Theatre.
Gary Owen returns with a new version of LA RONDE and he will be joined by three more plays, each a world premiere, developed in collaboration with The Royal Court Theatre, National Theatre Wales and Paines Plough, written by some of the UK’s most promising new writing talent.
