Welsh rugby union legend Shane Williams is heading to Powys to share the secrets of his illustrious career.

The former Wales and British and Irish Lions wing will take to the stage for a special evening at The Hafren theatre in Newtown next year.

The Hafren theatre said: "This is great evening for fans of Welsh rugby and a chance to get up close and personal with Shane, as he lifts the lid on life on and off the pitch. It also includes a Q and A, session - so if you have a burning question to put to Shane, now is your chance!"

Shane, 44, was most famous for his long and successful tenure as a wing for the Ospreys and the Wales national team.

In 2008, he was selected as the World Rugby Player of the Year and since his retirement from international rugby in 2012, he has worked as a presenter on S4C and as a pundit on BBC, ITV and Channel 4. He was also inducted into the World Rugby Hall of Fame in 2016.

'An Evening with Shane Williams' will be live on stage at 7.30pm on Saturday, January 29, 2022. Tickets at £24 each are on sale now from The Hafren website.
