Under Milk Wood

nder Milk Wood is a work of genius; ripe with vitality, rich in humour and populated by sublime, eccentric, enchanting characters.

Come to Llareggub, a small Welsh town by the sea. Meet blind Captain Cat, Mog Edwards and his sweetheart Miss Price, Sinbad Sailor, Dai Bread, Polly Garter, Nogood Boyo and Lord Cut Glass. Walk along Coronation Street, Cockle Row and Donkey Street, down to the little fishing harbour and back to Milk Wood. Dylan Thomas explores their lives, hopes and thoughts in the dreams of a night and the rhythm of a day.

Your guide through the town and its inhabitants – their secrets and stories – is the brilliant Welsh actor Owen Teale, star of Game of Thrones and winner of the Best Actor Tony Award for his performance in A Doll’s House on Broadway.

Both a play and a poem, written from the heart, it offers an unforgettable journey into the roots of language and the soul of Wales.

This new production, directed by Terry Hands, marks the centenary of Dylan Thomas’ birth in 1914 and the 60th anniversary of the play’s British première.
