DISGRIFIAD O’R PROSIECT
Cafodd Addurniadau Nadolig Canolfan Mileniwm Cymru eu dylunio i arddangos yr holl wahanol fathau o Nadoligau sy’n cael eu dathlu. Ymddangosodd 24 o flychau o wahanol feintiau a siapiau drwy’r Ganolfan – pob un â Nadolig gwahanol y tu mewn iddo, ac yn atgoffa rhywun o galendr adfent anferth, rhyngweithiol. Roedd y Krampus yn ymddangos yn y blwch Nadolig Dychrynllyd, i’n hatgoffa o’r ellyll corniog o ganol a dwyrain Ewrop sy’n ymweld â phlant drwg.
Cafodd dwylo, wyneb a chyrn y Krampus eu creu â llaw drwy ddefnyddio Milliput ar fodel bychan, gan drin a thrafod y pwti tra’r oedd yn wlyb, a’i baentio ar ôl iddo sychu. Gwnaed patrwm manwl ar ei gôt, a dorrwyd o ffwr wedi’i ailddefnyddio.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Wales Millennium Centre’s Christmas Decorations were designed to showcase all the different kinds of Christmas that are celebrated. 24 boxes of differing sizes and shapes appeared across the Centre - each with a different Christmas inside, reminiscent of a giant, interactive advent calendar. The Krampus appeared within the Scary Christmas box, paying homage to the horned demon from Central and Eastern Europe who visits naughty children.
The Krampus’ hands, face and horns were hand-crafted by applying Milliput to a minature maquette, manipulating and shaping the putty whilst it was wet, and painting once dry. A tiny pattern was made for his coat, which was cut from repurposed fur.

Artist Biography
DISGRIFIAD O’R PROSIECT
Cafodd The Incident Room ei hysgrifennu a’i llunio yng ngwanwyn 2019 a chafodd ei llwyfannu am y tro cyntaf yn theatr y New Diorama yr haf hwnnw cyn symud i Å´yl Fringe Caeredin, lle cafodd dderbyniad gwresog iawn. Atgyfodwyd y ddrama yn 2020 yn theatr y New Diorama, â dyluniad rhannol newydd, yna symudodd i Theatr Greenwich cyn rhediad yn Off Broadwy 59E59 Theaters. Enillodd Offie am ddyluniad y set yn 2021.
​
Mae’r cynhyrchiad wedi’i osod yn 1975 yn Leeds, ac Ystafell Ddigwyddiadau Millgarth yw canolbwynt yr ymchwiliad mwyaf yn hanes heddlu Prydain.
Dilynwn Sarjant Megan Winterburn wrth iddi ymuno â channoedd o swyddogion sy’n gweithio ddydd a nos i geisio dod o hyd i’r dyn sy’n cael ei adnabod fel y Yorkshire Ripper. Mae miloedd o ddatganiadau a darnau o dystiolaeth yn cael eu casglu a’u storio yn Ystafell Ddigwyddiadau Millgarth, ond heb gyfrifiaduron mae cysylltiadau hanfodol rhwng cliwiau yn cael eu methu.
​
Wrth i’r pwysau gan y cyhoedd gynyddu, mae’r ymchwiliad yn troi at ffyrdd mwy beiddgar o geisio dal un o lofruddion cyfresol gwaethaf Prydain.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Incident Room was written and devised in the Spring of 2019 and first staged at the New Diorama Theatre that Summer before transferring to the Edinburgh Fringe, where it was very well received. The play was revived in 2020 at The New Diorama Theatre, with a partially new design, and then transferred to Greenwich Theatre before a run at 59E59 Theaters, Off Broadway. The set design was awarded an Offie in 2021.
Set in 1975 in Leeds, the Millgarth Incident Room is the epicentre of the biggest manhunt in British police history.
​
We follow Sergeant Megan Winterburn as she joins hundreds of officers working around the clock to find the man known as the Yorkshire Ripper. Thousands of statements and scraps of evidence are collected and stored in the Millgarth Incident Room, but without computers vital connections between clues are missed.
​
With public pressure mounting, the investigation resorts to increasingly audacious attempts to catch one of Britain’s most notorious serial killers.
