Opening Night visits Cardiff as Theatr Pena stage a work by controversial writer and campaigner Saunders Lewis, as The Other Room in Cardiff takes Caryl Churchill to the pub.

Opening Night is in Cardiff where Theatr Pena are mounting a new production of a work by the controversial writer and campaigner Saunders Lewis. Women of Flowers is a story from the ancient books of the Mabinogion which was dramatised by Lewis in the 1920s. This new version has been written by award-winning writer Sion Eirian after the original, and is the latest outing for a company which focusses not only on literary theatre in Wales but also on providing opportunities in theatre for Women.

The programme also looks at a theatre spaces working outside the mainstream and a Welsh premiere at Cardiff's The Other Room of Caryl Churchill's exploration of science and family, A Number.
