This website showcases plays from Wales, no matter their period or language. The project is volunteer-led, non-profit, and free to access. The aim is to produce a digital library useful to ordinary readers, theatre professionals, and academics. The text is fully digitised, so that it can be searched by word or speaker. So far, we have over 100 plays (some half million words) from the last 500 years.
All the plays currently on the site, either in whole or in part. |
