"Mae cymaint o bobl wedi colli eu bywoliaeth, eu hincwm, eu cyfeiriad, eu gobeithion a'u breuddwydion... Mae hyn er mwyn ceisio codi arian ar gyfer gweithwyr llawrydd y theatr."
Mae Karen Campbell yn codi arian i roi help llaw i weithwyr llawrydd drwy gerdded i fyny Moel Famau bob dydd ym mis Tachwedd - sydd dros 100 milltir i gyd a bron i 4 marathon.
Mae gweithwyr llawrydd creadigol wedi cael eu taro'n galed gan effaith Covid-19; pan orfodwyd lleoliadau i gau eu drysau ym mis Mawrth, diflannodd y rhan fwyaf o'u gwaith. Bydd yr Apêl Help Llaw yn rhoi bwrsarïau bach o £560 i weithwyr llawrydd, gan roi rhywfaint o obaith a chefnogaeth yn ystod y cyfnod yma..
Fe lwyddodd hi! Llongyfarchiadau enfawr i Karen am ddringo Moel Famau pob dydd a chodi £1575.
"Mae Theatr Clwyd fel ail gartref i mi. Roedd fy mherfformiad cyntaf erioed i ar y prif lwyfan yn 1979 mewn cynhyrchiad o Carmina Burana. Fe wnes i syrthio mewn cariad â pherfformio ac rydw i wedi ei fwynhau byth ers hynny. Yn ystod y pum mlynedd ddiwethaf, rydw i wedi perfformio mewn sawl sioe, gan gynnwys y cynhyrchiad arloesol ‘Mold Riots’. Hwn fydd y tro cyntaf i mi beidio â 'chamu ar y llwyfan’ dros dymor yr Ŵyl.
Mae pandemig Covid-19 wedi cau drysau theatrau ar hyd a lled y wlad, a sioeau wedi’u canslo neu eu gohirio tan pwy a ŵyr pa bryd. Bydd llawer o theatrau'n methu goroesi a bydd eu drysau'n cau am byth.
Mae cymaint o bobl wedi colli eu bywoliaeth, eu hincwm, eu cyfeiriad, eu gobeithion a'u breuddwydion. Rydw innau hefyd wedi teimlo rhyw fath o golled. Mae sawl sioe roeddwn i wedi cael fy nghastio ar eu cyfer wedi cael eu canslo/gohirio, rhai yn Theatr Clwyd, taith o Macbeth yn Singapore a Theatr Seven ac ati.
Dyna pam y byddaf yn wynebu’r her o gerdded i fyny ac i lawr Moel Famau bob dydd drwy gydol mis Tachwedd. Mae hyn er mwyn ceisio codi arian ar gyfer gweithwyr llawrydd y theatr.
Rydw i'n gofyn i chi, eich ffrindiau, a ffrindiau eich ffrindiau a chydweithwyr fy nghefnogi i a chefnogi'r achos yma. Rhowch beth allwch chi fel ein bod ni’n barod i berfformio a diddanu yn y ffordd hyfryd ac unigryw y mae’r theatr hon yn cyflwyno ei chynyrchiadau unwaith bydd Theatr Clwyd yn cael agor ei drysau eto."

Keep going Karen, you’ve done incredibly well with this challenge, & such a worthy cause in these difficult times. We have missed seeing all the performers at Theatr Clwyd this year& sad that people’s livelihoods/income are being hugely affected by Covid. This will make a huge difference to those experiencing difficulties this Christmas. Sarah & Kevin Dyer
