East Riding Theatre has announced that its spring production will be ‘Under Milk Wood’ written by Dylan Thomas and directed by Richard Avery.
This true to life, hilarious play is sure to have audiences yo-yoing between tears of laughter and tears of emotion and runs between 4th – 21st May.
Set in the fictional Welsh village of Llareggub across the period of a single spring day, audiences will be immersed in the intimacies and humour of village life.
ERT’s artistic director, Richard Avery, and creative mind behind A Dickens of a Christmas, Fallen Leaves, The Catch, said: “I couldn’t ask for a bolder or better band of four actors to rise to the challenge of playing over 60 characters in quick succession”.
He added that ‘Under Milk Wood’ is rightly considered as Thomas’ most ‘enduring work’, because it recognises the goodness that people are capable of and the warmth of friendship, family and community that can still bind us together.
Tickets: £18.50 Standard / £17.50 Conc. (Over 65) / £12.00 Child (Under 16) on sale now and available from https://www.eastridingtheatre.co.uk/under-milk-wood/
