About

Organisation Summary: Avant Cymru are a forward thinking theatre company from the South Wales Valleys. Creating relevant, distinctive theatre, dance, Hip Hop and research activity with and for our community and championing this work at home and afar. Vision Statement: We’re working towards a future where we and our communities create cultural opportunities with hope, pride and ambition. Where we remember the past, discuss the present and create the future, together. And where our experiences and imaginations inspire people locally, nationally and internationally. Mission Statement: We listen to and showcase the hopes, dreams, and stories of individuals and groups in our communities. We do this through co-creating new work, facilitating classes and workshops, discussions and performances, and providing work and training. Conversation is central. We create anti-discriminatory, trauma-informed spaces to make sure that what matters, can be heard. We dissolve the divisions between artist, audience and participant to co-create original and relevant, compelling and imaginative, performances. We use the creative forms that are relevant to our communities - including theatre, dance, Breakin’, Hip Hop, film, visual art, and music and associated skills. We make in the Rhondda and nurture talent here. We showcase through often unexpected community, arts, sporting, and heritage platforms. We inspire locally, nationally and internationally, and we grow and flourish together.
