This production by McLucas and Ladd reveals Brith Gof’s well known, complex
and evocative theatrical style - a synthesis of movement, vocabulary and
text (Welsh and English) with original site specific context. Lla’th weaves
together three strands: the death of Christ, the death of Yuri Gagrin
and the death of a farmer, David Finch, in West Wales. The Finch family
were neighbours of Eddie Ladd’s family, and the story of his death, now
part of local mythology, is true, one that Eddie Ladd grew up with. Lla’th
(Gwynfryd) incorporates both live CCTV relay and pre-recorded video footage
to provide differing and various points of views on the action.
“One of the most intriguing
performers” The Western Mail
