1830s Russia. Poprishchin is in his 40's - a low ranking civil servant for the Government, struggling to make his mark on life, but one day he makes an amazing discovery. Could he really be the next King of Spain?

Driven insane by government bureaucracy and hierarchy, Gogol's dark comedy exposes one man's reality spiralling deeper into a surreal fantasy world.

Considered by many to be Gogol's best work, Diary of a Madman, is set in St Petersberg, among the petty repressed Tsarist Russia.

Directed by Sinead Rushe (Olivier Award nominee) this one man show, performed by Robert Bowman (Sherman Cymru, Bristol Old Vic, RSC) is a timeless piece that explores the human condition when it comes face to face with it's own mortality.

Popping out for a quick saunter around the block sounds easy to achieve, but if you have a mental or physical illness or disability, even getting to the start of a walk can be a challenge.

A forum organised in Pembrokeshire recently by West Wales Action for Mental Health brought a range of organisations together which deliver a recognised therapeutic service, including Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority's successful Walkability project.

The Authority's Walkability Officer, Paul Casson, attended the event and said: "There is now much more acceptance of the benefits of walking from a range of organisations, which is evident with the Authority being invited to speak at this local mental health forum.

A badly eroded access road to a popular South Pembrokeshire beauty spot has recently been restored, greatly benefitting locals and visitors. 

The Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority has recently undertaken road repairs to a conservation site in Skrinkle Haven near the Pembrokeshire Coast Path National Trail.
