Mae M wedi cael enw newydd: Darn arall yn jig-so ei fywyd. Dilynwn ef dros ddiwrnod, wrth iddo wynebu perthnasoedd ar eu newid a’r heriau a llawenydd bod yn ifanc a thraws. Ydy’r jig-so byth yn cael ei gwblhau?

Mae ei waith yn sefyll dros rymuso pobl ifanc, pawb sydd o fewn ymbarél LHDTC+ a chymunedau iaith Gymraeg. Mae Elgan wedi bod yn artist cyswllt am ddau gwmni Cymraeg blaenllaw ar gyfer plant a phobl ifanc, sef Frân Wen a Theatr Iolo, a chynhyrchodd Y Pump, cyfres o nofelau wedi cyd-greu ar gyfer pobl ifanc a enillodd dwy wobr Llyfr y Flwyddyn yn 2022.
