Audiences discover his destiny on the virtual dancefloor, with a DJ mixing club classics, punk hits and pop anthems, whilst experiencing the highs and lows of the uprising, with fierce twmpath, dance-offs, sieges, betrayals, and defections. It’s 1399 and Owain Glyndŵr, the legendary rebel Prince of Wales, has disappeared without a trace. This is a disco like no other, in which audiences dance the rebellion of the last Welsh prince of Wales. The online version retains all the hallmarks of the original, but as a virtual, live and interactive audience experience whilst sieged during lockdown in their own homes. It has toured castles across Wales, UK festivals and even been held in front of the Welsh Senedd (parliament) in Cardiff Bay during the national Eisteddfod 2018.

This online lockdown special formed part of the Green Man Field Of Streams festival in August.įor the last three years “Owain” has transported audiences through a unique Welsh history lesson told through a participative silent disco experience using wireless headsets. Light, Ladd & Emberton’s revolutionary Disgo Distaw Owain Glyndŵr Silent Disco has been reimagined as a live Disgo Zoom Disco. Laura Drane, one of our Covid-19 grant recipients, has already put the grant into action.
