It was established in 2019 by Theatre Gu Leòr with Marianne Kennedy of NUI Galway, who hosted a gathering of artists, academics, funders and development organisations in Glasgow (then called Ceangal/Dolen), with the aim of making connections, sharing best-practice and learning from each other, in order to strengthen the Scottish Gaelic, Irish and Welsh language theatre sectors. While the challenges faced by theatre-makers across the three nations may differ, we have many things in common, and Ceangal | Cwlwm hopes to build a network where we can draw strength and inspiration from each other, where collaborations can be initiated and where innovative approaches to making work in these three minoritised languages can be explored. In 2020, Irish partners NUI Galway hosted an online gathering in partnership with Ealaín na Gaeltachta, with funding from the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media, which also featured digital theatre pieces specially commissioned for the event. The initiative continues this year with an online gathering in November 2021, hosted by Welsh partners the University of South Wales, with support from University of South Wales, Welsh Government, Coleg Cymraeg Cenedlaethol, Colmcille, Theatr Genedlaethol Cymru, Eisteddfod Genedlaethol Cymru, An Taibhdearc, Ealaín na Gaeltachta, Theatre Gu Leòr and NUI Galway. Ceangal | Cwlwm has been supported each year since its inception with funding from Colmcille / Bòrd na Gàidhlig. https://www.ceangalcwlwm.com/ceangal-dolen-ii daily 0.75 2021-11-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6166b1c226b95f76edee38e4/98b7cb4c-c242-4fef-b07a-8864d1fb3428/pexels-nadi-lindsay-4492677.jpg CEANGAL DOLEN II - DAY 4 What can we do together?

Make it stand out SYNOPSIS Airson coimisean Ceangal Cwlwm, ’s e pìos bàrdach a chuireas NicArtair an gnìomh, mun neart a tha a’ leantainn bho màthraichean gu clann-nighean, tro sgeulachd ceithir-ginealachdan bhon teaghlach aice fhìn. Bidh a phìos a’ togail air bochdanas, ciùrradh-inntinn, spioradalachd, is creideas ann an trì pàirtean. Fiolmaidh NicArtiar i fhìn am broinn seata de dh’Eilean Ì, far an robh i a’ chreidsinn mar nigheann bheag gu robh spioraid a seanmhair a’ fuireachd as dèidh a bàs. Fhads a tha i a’ bruidhinn, cleachdaidh NicArtair proiseactar airson dealbhan Grianaig far an do rugadh i, is Baile a' Ghobhainn far a bheil i a’ fuireachd a-nis, a’ sealtainn oirre is air an seata, comhla ri dealbhan den teaghlachd bho thasglann sloinntearachd a mhàthar. NicArtair's piece for Ceangal Cwlwm is a piece of performative poetry about the resilience passed down from mothers to daughters, through the story of four generations of her family, exploring generational poverty, trauma, grief, spirituality, and faith in three sections. The performance of the piece will be filmed in a set made to mimic the landscape of Iona, where the artist believed as a child her grandmother's spirit lived after her death. Images of Gibshill and wider Greenock will be projected onto NicArtair while she speaks, as will her own home of Govan and family portraits from her mother's genealogy archive. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6166b1c226b95f76edee38e4/1becf377-5176-4156-bef9-992ff4de5529/AD02C678-9220-4CC9-B787-5085E892B731_1_201_a.jpeg COMMISSIONS 2021/22 - MIRIAM DONAGHEY SYNOPSIS Fàilte agus fáilte, gu àm aig a bheil dithis bhoireannach òg, agus cultar na h-Èireann is na h-Alba, a’ coinneachadh aghaidh ri aghaidh… Uill, cha mhòr. Tha Saoirse agus Aisling seachd searbh sgìth den glasadh mhòr, air an glacte a-staigh gun rud sam bith a dhèanamh.

Saoirse and Aisling are bored out of their minds during the depths of lockdown, stuck at home with nothing to do. They meet while scrolling through Instagram, and as their friendship grows via videocall, so does their mutual interest in each other’s languages and history.

Mae gwydnwch ac amaethu yn mynd law yn llaw, ond beth am y dygnwch sydd ei angen? Gyda'r diwydiant yn mynd yn fwyfwy ynysig, i ba raddau y gall dygnwch ein ffermwyr gael ei wthio? Fy mwriad yw archwilio’r cwestiynau hyn gyda ‘r gwaith. My intention for the Ceangal Cwlwm Commission is to look at resilience in the farming community in Wales. Resilience and farming go hand in hand but what about the mental endurance aspect of farming? With the industry becoming increasingly isolated, to what extent can the endurance of our farmers be pushed? My intention is to explore these questions through the work. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6166b1c226b95f76edee38e4/5fd4ea58-af99-43ae-90d3-c7645ee72c51/roisin+headshot.jpg COMMISSIONS 2021/22 - Make it stand out SYNOPSIS Tá sé ar intinn agam físeán a chruthú atá spreagtha ag fíorscéal Lís na Beannaí Ní Dhálaigh a saolaíodh ar charraig in aice An Bhlascaod Mór in 1878. Beidh an físeán á dhéanamh i Heilbhic, Gaeltacht na nDéise i dteannta Sophie Hutchinson, rinceoir agus Natalia Uí Fhaoláin, scannánóir. Shamhlóinn go raibh an-cheangal ag Lís leis na héanlaithe agus an nádúr. Beidh an mothú seo á chruthú sa físeán trí mheán na filíochta agus an rince. D’imigh Lís ar imirce go Meiriceá in 1897. Seasann na héanlaithe mar mheafair don imirce agus mianach an duine fanacht ina áit dhúchais nó imeacht thar sáile. I plan to make a film that is inspired by the true story of Lís na Beannaí Ní Dhálaigh who was born on a rock near The Great Blasket, Kerry in 1878. The film will be shot at Helvic, Waterford Gaeltacht with Sophie Hutchinson, dancer and Natalia Uí Fhaoláin, film maker. I imagine that Lís had a strong connection with the birds and nature and I wish to transmit the feeling through the medium of poetry and dance. Lís immigrated to America in 1897. The birds represent a metaphor for emigration and our human nature to settle on native land or go overseas. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6166b1c226b95f76edee38e4/d74507f5-d7cd-4c77-9841-e0b1f753a585/Hilary+Bowen-Walsh%2C+pic-Aline+Sene.jpg COMMISSIONS 2021/22 - Make it stand out SYNOPSIS Seo scéal Ádhamh agus Éabha, a gcathú agus a dtrialacha a d’fhulaing siad ag an díbirt ón nGairdín Pharthais tráth. Chruthaigh Dia an duine ar a dheilbh féin, agus ó shin tá an chine duine ag streachailt leis an géarchéim eiseach: An staid dhaonna. De réir an Bhíobla, 'Bhásaigh an bás ar gach fear, mar gur pheaca go léir iad.’ An féidir le Ádhamha agus Éabha brí a bhaint as beatha in easpa Dé? Idir chreidimh agus moráltacht, tiocfaidh fadhb an oilc chun tosaigh dóibh. This is the story of Adam and Eve, their temptations and trials upon banishment from Eden. God created man in his own image, and since then man has struggled with the existential crisis: The human condition. According to the Bible, 'Sin entered the world through man and death came to all people.' Can Adam and Eve make sense of life without God? Between faith and morality, the problem of evil will come to the fore. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6166b1c226b95f76edee38e4/f24fb8df-de11-46ce-a588-725ecd319617/IMG_20220201_142334.jpg COMMISSIONS 2021/22 - Make it stand out SYNOPSIS Nid mater o wrthdaro na gwrthryfel ydi gwydnwch . Nid mater ymosodol ydi goroesi yn wyneb heriau ac amgylchiadau byd. Ac nid datganiad sy'n gwahanu ac yn amlygu rhaniadau ydyw chwaith. Ni phrofais i erioed negyddiaeth ar sail pwy, na beth, ydw i. Efallai mai lwcus ydw i, ac nid gwydn. Rydw i'n gynyddol grediniol mai trwy ac oherwydd amrywiaeth, y mae goroesi. O ran iaith fechan yn nhapestri ieithoedd mawr a bach... yn ferch mewn byd sydd wedi bod yn wrywol o ddifedddwl... o ran bod yn Gymraes yn ei gwlad ei hun... yn amgylcheddwraig mewn llygredd a newid hinsawdd...Hynny ydi, mewn byd ansicr, fod gwydnwch yn golygu ein bod, bob un, yn deall pwy ydan ni yng nghanol enfys o amrywiaeth diderfyn.

Mae'n fydolwg sydd wedi'i seilio ar egwyddorion lleol, personol, ond byth yn hunanol. Gwydnwch 'is neither a battle or a war. It is not a clash or an expression of force. It is not a fight where the stronger exerts its prowess to mute its weaker sibling. Maybe I am lucky to be able to testify that this world tapestry has never negatively reactrd to my place on this earth. My femininity. My minority language. My small nation next door to the largest and pinkest empirical power ever seen. And then there is the fitting aptness of my poetry. I feel tough in my unique oddity. In the ftagile beating of my heart.
