Production Info
4X10

Made for 4X10 by/gan Daisy Howell

4X10 was one of the landmark projects in our 40th year. It was an important new concept within our programme, enabling the production and presentation of distinctive new work by our Artistic Associates and guest artists.

These four new works are from artists who are shaping perceptions of contemporary Wales – each in different ways and from different perspectives.
