Brên. Calon. Fi

A hilarious and heart-wrenching monologue about lesbian love and desire from one of Wales’ best playwrights

Meet Fi: a girl in a North Wales village with spiky hair and a BMX, fancying girls but pretending to be straight; falling for a woman on the rugby team without telling anyone that she’s also fallen into her bed; going to London to be a lesbian in a lesbian world loving every lesbian second… until she’s not.

As Fi takes us on a journey through her love life – the secret crushes, the awkward sex and the messy heartbreak – she explores the complexities of being true to yourself while growing up as a tomboy in the nineties.

One of the Guardian’s Theatre Picks for 2022, this is a hilarious and heart-wrenching monologue about lesbian love and desire from one of Wales’ best playwrights, Bethan Marlow, directed by Rhiannon Mair.

A Theatr Genedlaethol Cymru production, in association with Eisteddfod Genedlaethol Cymru. Brên. Calon. Fi was originally commissioned by Eisteddfod Genedlaethol Cymru for the 2022 Tregaron National Eisteddfod. Funded by Arts Council of Wales.
