An Orange in the Subway
By Owen Thomas
Directed by Dan Jones
The Other Room in partnership with The Wallich
9-27 September
‘Cardiff isn’t one city but different cities on different levels.
One for the devils and one for the angels’.
As the concrete streets sting with the cold, Cassie is convinced someone is watching over her. Do guardian angels really walk the streets of Cardiff? Perhaps they do. Perhaps it's all nonsense. Because who would possibly give a s*** about her?!
Performed on those very streets and by the people that inspired it, Owen Thomas' absurd and frenzied new play tackles profound questions from the knee-high perspective of Cardiff's rough sleepers. What does it mean to have a home? Is there any hope to be found here?
And.
Where did that orange come from?
In partnership with Welsh homelessness charity The Wallich, ‘An Orange in the Subway’ will be performed outdoors at Mackenzie Park, Cardiff. Featuring a cross-over cast and creative team of The Wallich service users and seasoned professionals, ‘The Other Room’ embraces its new nomadic normal with this latest production.

‘Nid un ddinas yw Caerdydd ond gwahanol ddinasoedd ar lefelau gwahanol.
Un i’r diafoliaid ac un i’r angylion’.
Wrth i’r strydoedd concrid losgi â’u hoerfel, mae Cassie yn sicr bod rhywun yn cadw golwg arni. A oes angylion gwarcheidiol yn cerdded strydoedd Caerdydd mewn gwirionedd? Efallai eu bod. Efallai mai rwtsh yw’r cyfan. Achos pwy fyddai’n poeni dim amdani hi?!
Yn cael ei pherfformio ar yr union strydoedd a gan y bobl wnaeth ei hysbrydoli, mae drama newydd abswrd a gwyllt Owen Thomas yn ymdrin â chwestiynau dwys o safbwynt lefel y pen-glin y rhai sy’n cysgu allan yng Nghaerdydd. Beth mae cael cartref yn ei olygu? A oes unrhyw obaith y bydd rhywun yn dod o hyd i chi yma?
Ac.
O ble daeth yr orenau yna?
Mewn partneriaeth â’r elusen ddigartrefedd o Gymru, The Wallich, bydd ‘An Orange in the Subway’ yn cael ei pherfformio yn yr awyr agored ym Mharc Mackenzie, Caerdydd.
