FÀILTE
Winter is here and it’s time to hunker down in front of the fire and eat mince pies. But we can’t do that all season and happily An Lanntair’s winter programme is packed with fabulous reasons to don those woolly jumpers and brave leaving the house.
Tha an geamhradh ann agus ’s e seo an t-àm airson suidhe aig an teine a ghabhail rud a chumas blàth sinn. Chan urrainn dhuinn siud a dhèanamh fad a’ gheamhraidh ge-tà, agus gu fortanach tha An Lanntair le prògram làn a bheir oirbh an t-seacaid mhòr a chur oirbh agus gabhail a-steach am baile.
Picks of the winter: Deiseal: Sunwise, by the artist Jon Macleod. This intriguing work was produced using Guinness cans as pinhole cameras. Yes, Guinness cans as pinhole cameras! Sounds unbelievable doesn’t it? These images will blow your mind. A reminder of the solar calendar we all live by and the extraordinary diversity across the landscapes of these islands, this is an exhibition not to be missed. Showing at An Lanntair 19 Nov to 17 Jan. House dance and hiphop workshops for children and adults of all ages. I can’t wait for this series of new workshops, a chance for us all to pick up some surprising tips and techniques and learn from the amazing professional dancer and choreographer, Tony Mills. Various dates from 3 Dec to 13 Dec. Niteworks, This gig with the amazing Niteworks, who fuse Gaelic and trad sounds with electronic music, will see An Lanntair bouncing into the early hours as we lead in to the festive season. Time to try out those new dance moves! 9pm on Sat 17 Dec. And of course, let’s not forget that it’s Christmas! With Beauty and the Beast and Snow White Pantos, a whole host of events in the Café Bar, a packed cinema offer and Christmas shopping too, An Lanntair’s programme is busier than ever this year. Elly Fletcher, Chief Executive
Roghainn a’ Gheamhraidh: Deiseal: Sunwise, leis an neach-ealain, Jon MacLeòid. Chaidh an obair iongantach seo a chruthachadh le canastairean Guinness air an cur gu feum mar chamarathan pinhole. Seadh, canastairean leanna nan chamarathan! Tha e duilich a chreids’ gun tàinig na dealbhan sònraichte às innealan cho sìmplidh. Tha e a’ cur nar cuimhne slighe na grèine a tha a’ stiùireadh ar beatha agus na diofar seòrsa àrainneachdan mìorbhaileach a gheibhear sna h-Eileanan sònraichte againn. Anns An Lanntair bho 19 Samh gu 17 Faoill. Le bùithtean-obrach dannsa house agus hiphop dha clann is inbhich, abair gu bheil mi a’ coimhead air adhart chun nan clasaichean seo; le cothrom againn uile sgilean is comasan ùra dannsaidh ionnsachadh bhon dannsair phroifeiseanta mhìorbhaileach Tony Mills.

Consairt bhon chòmhlan iongantach Niteworks, a tha a’ cur ceòl Gàidhealach maille ri ceòl eileactronaigeach, a’ fàgail An Lanntair a’ bocadaich gu anmoch – feuch gum bi sib’ fhèin a’ bocadaich air an ùrlar-dannsaidh cuideachd! Agus, cuimhnichibh gu bheil an Nollaig gu bhith ann! Le Beauty and the Beast agus Snow White againn mar phantos, Oidhche na Bliadhna Ùire, sreath thachartasan sa Chafaidh Bhàr, prògram de filmichean agus gu leòr ri cheannach sa bhùth, tha An Lanntair gu bhith a cheart cho tarraingeach am bliadhna sa bha e a-riamh.

Suspension and Disbelief:The Story of the Slighe Sìoman 19 Nov 2016 – 17 Jan 2017 “If ever a vehicle was driven in defiance of God’s will, it was across the Barvas moor”. These were the words of Hugh Morrison: Leodhasach, engineer, visionary, in the aftermath of the Second World War. “What Lewis needs is a modern, sustainable, brave new transport solution”. His proposal was to build the world’s longest cable car system, one that would stretch almost the entire length of Lewis, from Barvas to Stornoway and south through Lochs to Tarbert. An Lanntair welcomes you aboard the Hebridean Cable Transit Company in a new exhibition by Philippa Thomas and Hector MacInnes, retracing the journey from its 1948 launch through its glorious heyday and onwards to its subsequent demise. At the centre of “Suspension and Disbelief” will be a completed restoration of the last surviving HCTC cable car gondola. To follow the progress of the restoration and the exhibition, visit thehctc.com. An Lanntair commission as part of the Bealach Creative Place Award.
Càball ’s Creideamh: Sgeulachd na Slighe Sìomain 19 Samh 2016 – 17 Faoill 2017 “Ma chuireadh carbad a-riamh an-aghaidh toil Dhè, ’s ann thar mòinteach Bharabhais a chaidh a chur”. B’ iad seo briathran Uisdein Mhoireasdain: einnseanair làn-lèirsinn à Leòdhas às dèidh an Dàrna Chogaidh. “’S e dh’fheumas Leòdhas ach siostam-siubhail ùr-nodha, seasmhach, dàna.” Bha beachd aige siostam mòr a thogail de charbadan càbaill a dheigheadh air feadh Eilean Leòdhais, bho Bharabhas gu Steòrnabhagh agus gu deas tro Na Lochan gu ruige An Tairbeirt. Tha An Lanntair a’ cur fàilte oirbh is sibh a’ tighinn air bòrd Companaidh Càbaill nan Eilean ann an taisbeanadh ùr le Philippa Thomas agus Eachann MacAonghais; a’ leantainn a’ phròiseict bho thoiseachdthòiseachaidh an 1948, gu fèill mhòr ga dhèanamh air, agus mu dheireadh mar a chrìon e. Aig teis-meadhan an taisbeanaidh, bidh an carbad gondola càbaill HCTC fa dheireadh air a thogail às ùr. Ma tha sibh airson ùrachadh agus ath-thogail a’ charbaid a leantainn air-loidhne, theirigibh gu thehctc. com. Coimisean An Lanntair mar phàirt de Dhuais Bealach aig Alba Chruthachail.

Cha robh na camarathan ach nan innealan gu math sìmplidh; canastairean le fiolm-foto nam broinn, le gach fear aca a’ clàradh slighe na grèine gach là bhon là as giorra chun an là as fhaide sa bhliadhna.

A funny thing happened on the way to the pub… Bob Cunningham thought he saw a man ascend into the sky.
Abair gun do thachair rud àraid dhomh is mi a’ dol chun a’ bhàr… shaoil le Bob Coineagan gum fac’ e duine ga thoirt suas chun nan speuran.
It’s two years after the referendum, and Bob Cunningham has stuff on his mind: whether or not to take early retirement; politics, of course, and what to do about the No vote, Brexit, Corbyn, the refugee crisis… that weird thing about rising into the heavens… and not forgetting the letter from Ethel, his ex.
Tha dà bhliadhna bhon a bha an reifreann ann agus tha Bob Coineagan le buaireas na inntinn; am bu chòir dha a dhreuchd a leigeil dheth, politigs, agus dè ghabhas a dhèanamh mun bhot airson ‘No’, Brexit, Corbyn, na fògarraich… am fear a thugadh suas chun nan speuran… agus an litir a fhuair e bho sheann chompanach, Ethel. 11
