Aberystwyth University Department of Theatre, Film and Television Studies, in association with Lurking Truth/Gwir sy'n Llechu Theatre Company, present a rehearsed reading of Red Sun, by David Rudkin, directed by David Ian Rabey. An island in the Third World. A foreign company exploit the natural resources and abuse the native tribe. In his rage and pain at what his people suffer, the tribal magician uses his magic craft to create a subhuman creature of clay, whom he sends to do acts of terrorism among the oppressors, to punish them and try to frighten them away. Inevitably, he has created something more than he can control... This is a staged slam reading of this stark and mythic two-hander play. The text of Red Sun, first staged in 2003, is published by Intellect Books. 22 February 2014
