To celebrate 130 years of Film in Wales, the Torch Theatre is delighted to be screening the Welsh cult classic, Twin Town. The screening of the 1997 British dark comedy and crime film will be followed by an exclusive Q and A from the film’s director, Kevin Allen – what a night it’s set to be!

F Bryn Cartwright (William Thomas) a wealthy roofing contractor, rugby club chairman and local kingpin sees him ruling the roost until Fatty Lewis (Huw Ceredig) a local handyman falls off a ladder on a Cartwright job. Fatty’s twin junkie grandsons, Julian (Llyr Ifans) and Jeremy (Rhys Ifans) who are not in fact twins – attempt to procure compensation from Cartwright, who refuses to pay up. The doped-up Julian and Jeremy then inflict anarchy not only on Cartwright and his family but on anyone they encounter whilst Terry (Dougray Scott) and Greyo (Dorian Thomas), two local policemen employ their own dubious peacekeeping methods as events spiral out of control.

Filmed mainly around Port Talbot and set in Swansea, the film was directed by Kevin Allen who appears on screen, briefly seen as a show host on a TV set in the static caravan home of the twins while co-writer Paul Durden briefly appears as a rude taxi driver.

Twin Town (18) followed by a Q and A, can be seen on the Torch Theatre screen / stage on Friday 16 October at 7.30pm. Price: £7.50 | £7.00 Cons | £6.00 U16 | £24.00 Family. Phone the Box Office on 01646 695267 / visit torchtheatre.co.uk or click here.
