Touring South Wales in Spring 2026

Supported by The Riverfront, Theatr Cymru and Climate Cymru.

Gwen, an anxious polar bear, wakes up on a broken icecap hundreds of miles away from her family. On her perilous journey through the Arctic Ocean, she will have to find her courage, as well as her way home.
Centred on themes of climate change, home and confidence, Gwen yr Arth Wen fuses puppetry, music and visual storytelling to form a rich and exciting show about finding confidence in yourself. A fun and thought-provoking performance in Welsh for audiences aged 6+ and their families.
