Come With Me!

Krystal S. Lowe is a Bermudian, Wales-based author, poet and screenwriter whose work explores themes of intersectional identity, mental well-being, and empowerment. Through her extensive career as a dancer and choreographer she has had the pleasure of intertwining her writing with movement to create dance theatre works for stage, public space, and film. 

Krystal has written short films including ​‘Daughters of the Sea’ for Ffilm Cymru, BBC Arts, BBC Cymru, and Arts Council Wales; ​‘Somehow’ for Music Theatre Wales; ​‘Complexity of Skin’ for the Space for BBC’s Culture in Quarantine; and ​‘Seven’ for Ffilm Cymru and BFI Network Wales. Alongside her screenwriting Krystal self-published a bilingual children’s book ​‘Whimsy’ which sits in libraries in Wales and Bermuda. She has written articles for Wales Arts Review’s collaboration with The Guardian, People Dancing’s Animated Magazine, and contributed to Parthian Books’ ​‘Woman’s Wales?’. 

Intent on sharing the joy of writing with young people, Krystal facilitated creative writing workshops for Literature Wales for their Cymru Ni programme. Krystal is passionate about integrating access and keen to develop her bilingual writing practice. This year she has written her first bilingual play ​‘Aderyn’, commissioned by the inaugural Heart of Wales Fringe Theatre Festival in Llandovery.
