Rita, an under-appreciated lawyer in Mexico, is enlisted to help a cartel leader, ‘Manitas,’ in his plan to retire from business and disappear.

It’s an audacious, genre-defying film balancing humour and depth - a musical crime comedy that manages to raise serious questions about identity.

Mae Rita, cyfreithiwr nad yw'n cael ei werthfawrogi'n ddigonol ym Mecsico, wedi'i restru i helpu arweinydd cartel, 'Manitas', yn ei gynllun i ymddeol o fusnes a diflannu.

Mae'n ffilm beiddgar sy'n herio genre yn cydbwyso hiwmor a dyfnder - comedi trosedd gerddorol sy'n llwyddo i godi cwestiynau difrifol am hunaniaeth.

Miles Jupp - On I Bang

Since Miles’ last tour finished at The London Palladium in 2017, he’s been in The Full Monty on Disney Plus, The Durrells and Why Didn’t They Ask Evans? on ITV, as well as a heap of episodes of Frankie Boyle’s New World Order and Have I Got News For You.

He’s made an award-winning radio series, he’s published a novel and he’s played the Emperor of Austria and Europe in Ridley Scott’s Napoleon.

Yet one sunny day in the middle of all this, he suddenly suffered a brain seizure. This led to the discovery of a tumour the size of a cherry tomato, and a rather pressing need to undergo major neurosurgery. Obviously, one doesn’t wish to make a big deal of it, but the experience has left him with a story to tell and a few things that he’d like to share with the room. So that’s exactly what he’s doing in his new show On I Bang – a tale about surprise, fear, luck, love and qualified medical practitioners.

We return to Pride Rock in this musical prequel as Rafiki recounts the legend of Mufasa to Kiara, the daughter of Simba and Nala.

The story introduces Mufasa as an orphaned cub, lost and alone until he meets a sympathetic lion prince named Taka — later known as Scar. The chance encounter sets into motion an extraordinary journey of a group of misfits searching for their destiny, with their bonds being tested when they work together to evade a threatening and deadly foe.

Mewn gerddorol stori sy’n adrodd hanes Pride Rock cyn y ‘Lion King’ mae Raki yn adrodd chwedl Mufasa i Kiara, merch Simba a Nala.

Mae’r stori’n cyflwyno Mufasa fel llew ifanc amddifad, ar goll ac ar ei ben ei hun nes iddo gwrdd â thywysog llew sy’n cydymdeimlo ag ef — a adwaenid yn ddiweddarach fel Scar. Dyma gychwyn ar daith ryfeddol grŵp o anffodusion sy’n chwilio am eu tynged. Mae eu perthynas yn cael eu brofi pan fyddant yn cydweithio i osgoi gelyn bygythiol a marwol.

When a rogue U.S General triggers a nuclear attack, a surreal race takes place, seeing the Government and one eccentric scientist scramble to avert global destruction.

This explosively funny satire is led by a world-renowned creative team led including Emmy Award-winner Armando

Lannucci (The Thick of It, Veep) and Olivier Award-winner Sean Foley (The Upstart Crow).

Mae'r dychan ffrwydrol ddoniol hwn yn cael ei arwain gan dîm creadigol byd-enwog dan arweiniad Armando Lannucci sydd wedi ennill Gwobr Emmy, (The Thick of It, Veep) ac enillydd Gwobr Olivier, Sean Foley (The Upstart Crow).

The Capulets and Montagues are sworn enemies. Yet it is love at first sight for Romeo Montague and Juliet Capulet when they meet each other at the Capulet ball, into which Romeo has snuck.

The two fall in love and they profess their devotion to each other at Juliet’s balcony. They secretly get married. The stakes are raised for the young couple when Romeo avenges the death of his friend Mercutio who has been killed by Tybalt, Juliet’s cousin. For this, Romeo is exiled from Verona.

Meanwhile, Juliet’s parents are forcing her to marry another suitor. In order to be together, Romeo and Juliet must risk it all.

Mae'r Capulets a Montagues yn elynion llwg. Ac eto, cariad yw hi ar yr olwg gyntaf i Romeo Montague a Juliet Capulet pan fyddant yn cwrdd â'i gilydd wrth bêl y Capulet, y mae Romeo wedi sncian ynddi.
