Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council successfully applied to PRS for Music Foundation throught the Funding for Organisations & Groups scheme for the creation of a new work to celebrate the centenary of one of the most culturally significant buildings in South Wales; The Park and Dare Theatre, Treorci. This former Miners’ Institutes Theatre was built on the weekly contributions from the wages of the local workforce on a penny in the pound basis.
This new work, whilst being contemporary, will reflect the rich history of the building and the area and will engage a whole range of members of the community including schools, students, instrumentalists and singers through a series of workshops and open rehearsals both in the creation and the performance of the work.
