We do not want to put pictures in your head, so here is Richard
Burton reading from Under Milk Wood.
Gently going...following the dreams and lives of people who live in a small Welsh town over the course of a day
Upstage Contributor Gaspare Borsellino spoke with Director Jacqueline van de Geer about Dramatis Personae production of Under Milk Wood by Dylan Thomas.
UPSTAGE
Funny that we’re going to be speaking about Under Milk Wood. Many years ago, I played in Under Milk Wood. This play makes me think of Our Town.
VAN DE GEER
Yes they are similar. Under Milk Wood is also about a community. In this case, a community in a fishing village in Wales. It isn’t a strong story line; more of a
collage piece following the dreams and lives of people who live in a small Welsh town over the course of a day.
It begins at night - showing the dreams of the village people - in the daytime we see the difference between their dreams and reality.
