Ceridwen Theatre Company | Theatre & Events

Ceridwen Theatre Company (CTC) produce high quality arts experiences for audiences and clients around the UK.

We make theatre shows, specialising in new writing and immersive experiences, for all sorts of venues that inspire us creatively - theatres, caves, forests, historic buildings, steam trains and more. We provide creative services to companies and individuals for a wide variety of events including bespoke murder mysteries, themed entertainment evenings and arts education workshops, as well as corporate and medical roleplay.

We are a female-led, not-for-profit company with proud Welsh roots and take our name from a legendary female figure in Welsh folklore - the goddess Ceridwen. At the helm we have Company Directors Helena Devereux, Gemma Mann and Nadia Devereux, alongside Artistic Director Vivien Lesley Jones.

Freelancers are the backbone of the arts industries and we are proud to work with talented independent artists to create our work.

Since forming in 2014 we've created 8 new productions, received numerous commissions from theatre, councils, museums & heritage venues to create new work and been successful in securing funding from Arts Council England.

"Ceridwen, according to Welsh legends and folklore, was a white witch or goddess, and is considered to be the goddess of poetry, inspiration and of the cauldron of transfiguration."
