Penrolio is Penarth’s annual Hen Galan (Old New Year) ritual, rolling the head of Bendigeidfran from the Mabinogi, travelling with the Mari Lwyd. Started 2018 with R M Parry and Ifor Davies. In 2023 a new wicker head was made by Lewis Prosser. In 2024 Luca Paci and I led with musician Marc Elton. lllustrator Sue Shields made a cardboard Mari Lwyd and volunteers read from the ancient Welsh text.. As a coda, the head was burnt on a beach and the ashes will travel on to be buried in London. We trust someone will come forward with a new head for 2024/25.

In 2016-22 I joined Richard Parry as artistic co-director of Coleridge in Wales Ltd. We made a series of public works as the artists Parry & Glynn. These included carnival and festival events, antemasques, song recitals, publications, installations and work for exhibition. Parry and Glynn performed at cultural festivals, conferences, the National Museum of Wales and Senedd Cymru.
