Overview
Do you recognise me now?
I know it’s you.
No but look at me.
I have. I am.
No, look into my eyes. No, keep looking. Look.
When his sons start to ask questions he had hoped never to have to answer, a father is forced to confront the shocking consequences of one extraordinary decision.
A fearless and affecting dissection of the relationship between father and son, A Number strikes at the heart of what it is to love unconditionally – and the tragic failure to connect.
Directed by Ed Madden, visionary playwright Caryl Churchill’s modern classic of science, family and loss receives its Welsh premiere here at The Other Room.
Pan ddechreuodd ei feibion ofyn cwestiynau yr oedd wedi gobeithio na fyddai'n rhaid iddo eu hateb fyth, caiff tad ei orfodi i ddod wyneb yn wyneb â chanlyniadau syfrdanol un penderfyniad anhygoel.
Gan ddehongli'r berthynas rhwng tad a mab mewn modd mentrus a theimladwy, mae A Number yn mynd i'r afael â'r hyn mae'n ei olygu i garu rhywun yn ddiamod - a'r methiant trasig i gysylltu.
Caiff clasur modern y dramodydd gwreiddiol Caryl Churchill am wyddoniaeth, teulu a cholled, a gyfarwyddwyd gan Ed Madden, ei pherfformio am y tro cyntaf yng Nghymru yma yn The Other Room.
