ENTERTAINMENT FEAST

Let the YFC members entertain you at the annual Entertainment Feast!

Each year the genre rotates between Drama, Pantomime and Entertainment and showcases the talent of members from across Wales, in both English and Welsh languages.

For many budding actors and actresses this is a unique opportunity to perform on a professional stage with up to date facilities with assistance from experienced stage crew and technicians.

Alongside the Entertainment competition, there is strong competition between members who are competing for their Clubs in both the Senior and Junior member of the year, announced as part of the awards ceremony at the final!

2026 will be the year of the Talent - half an hour of varied entertainment! This will be an event not to be missed and an opportunity to see budding actors and actresses from across the County entertain their audiences. The English Talent Competition taking place on the 12th & 13th February at Ysgol Bro Gwaun, with the Welsh Talent taking place on the Tuesday 10th February at Ysgol Bro Preseli, Theatre Gromlech.

The Wales YFC Entertainment Feast takes place on the 7th & 8th March 2026 at Pontio, Bangor. The Welsh competition takes place on Saturday 7th and the English takes place on Sunday 8th March.

Pantomime

The competition shall take the form of a pantomime, which may be either excerpts from a pantomime* or the teams original work.

*For guidance only “Pantomime is a dramatic entertainment loosely based on a traditional fairy tale in which the activity is carried on with the help of singing, dancing, clowning, topical jokes and music, in which the performance of that action is conducted by certain stock roles, usually ‘principal boy’ (hero) acted by a woman, and the ‘dame’ acted by a man.”

Competition next held in 2028.

Drama

Drama is a form of storytelling used to show the strengths and weaknesses of human nature.

Teams may choose either a single act from a full-length play, excerpts from a full-length play or a complete one-act play.

Competition next held in 2027.

Talent

An Entertainment may include straight singing, singing with movement, dancing of any kind, drama, sketches, humour – either visual or spoken (though anything of a dubious nature would be penalised) – magic or conjuring, instrumental performances, mime etc. – the list is endless. But, like making a cake, the ingredients must be weighed and balanced, mixed and blended to make the whole performance.

A play is not to be included in Entertainments. (A play can be defined as following a story from beginning to end).

Competition held in 2026.
