Dylan Thomas: Clown in the Moon

Jersey Opera House Studio

Event Overview

Clown in the Moon (the title of a poem written when Dylan Thomas was 14) is a dramatic portrait of the poet’s chaotic, frequently hilarious, and all too brief life.

Located in a BBC studio, it sets some of Dylan’s famous broadcasts and iconic works alongside vivid reminiscences of his clownish antics in pubs, bars and parties, and his encounters with a host of eccentric and volatile women.

Directed by Gareth Armstrong (Shylock) Written by Gwynne Edwards (Burton) – Rhodri Miles (Eastern Promises, Atlantis, Game of Thrones) returns to the stage to play Dylan Thomas - after his recent acclaimed tour of the award winning show Burton
