UNDER Milk Wood – the play made famous by Richard Burton’s legendary recording in 1954 - has been vibrantly brought to life again by the talented Guy Masterson, Burton’s nephew, and he will be bringing this show to Cardigan’s Theatr Mwldan on Friday, April 13 (7.30pm).

Celebrating a day in the life of ‘Llareggub’ - a small seaside town somewhere in Wales - all 69 ebullient inhabitants in Dylan Thomas’ timeless masterpiece are hilariously recreated in an amazing feat of memory and virtuosity.

Masterson’s astonishing solo performance premiered in 1994 and has played over 2,000 times all over the world from Swansea to the West End, Trinidad to New Zealand, Hong Kong to Calcutta.

For 23 years, this one-man show has enchanted audiences wherever it has played.

Dylan Thomas’ Under Milk Wood started life as a short story with a working title of The Town Was Mad.

While working for the BBC in the late 1930’s, the first draft of a day in the life of a fictional sleepy Welsh fishing town entitled Quite Early One Morning was broadcast.

After Thomas finally settled upon the title Under Milk Wood, he also added the proviso A Play For Voices. It has become Thomas’ most famous and enduring work and has been translated into more than 50 languages.

Tickets to see Under Milk Wood are £15 (£14) and are available now from Theatr Mwldan’s Box Office on 01239 621200, online at www.mwldan.co.uk or via the Mwldan app.
