Singer and songwriter Mal Pope has signed up to perform at the 10th anniversary of the Peterston-super-Ely Arts Festival.

In both Portrait of Mal, London (2 March 2024) and Portrait of Charlotte, London (2 March 2024) you avert your gaze thereby refusing to engage with the viewer’s gaze.

Mal Pope’s musical is centred on three women who meet every day in the same cafe to discuss their lives and dreams. It opens at the Gate Art Centre, Roath, Cardiff, at the beginning of December.

Charlotte Woolford (CW): When Mal first approached me I felt quite confused but he began to talk to me about his passion for photography, so I felt like it appealed to my creativity.
