STORIES of rugby, mining communities and passionate love affairs lie at the heart of National Dance Company Wales’ new tour.

Roots will be paying a visit to Mold's Theatr Clwyd on Thursday and Friday, November 7 and 8.

The production showcases four of National Dance Company Wales' favourite pieces made in Wales, including one by Swansea raised choreographer Anthony Matsena.

Each is short and dynamic and tells a unique story through dance; exploring relatable themes of Welsh life and culture. Thought-provoking and light-hearted, the performances and discussion are designed for audiences of all ages to enjoy. Each dance piece is introduced to help everyone find their own meanings within the stories and is followed by a question-and-answer session to share behind the scenes secrets of the choreographers and dancers.
