Dylan
Thomas
Inspired
Whip-round
Jávea
Players
Once again (April 29), the Javea
Players’ Studio Theatre had a near
capacity audience. On stage were
members of the Javea Book Circle
reading their presentation ‘Before
Milkwood’, an adaptation of three
of Dylan Thomas’s much admired
pieces of prose, two short stories,
‘A Visit to Grandpa’s’ and ‘The Outing’ and his script for the BBC, ‘A
Return Journey to Swansea’.
The readers captured the energy,
humour and creativity of Wales’
best-known poet for an appreciative audience
When he introduced the presentation Mike Harvey, the Javea
Players’ Chairman, confessed his
strong Swansea connections and
suggested that members of the audience, who so wished, could use
the basket on the bar to make a
donation to the Nepal Earthquake
Appeal.
A whip-round at the bar might well
have been the way Dylan would go
about helping a very worthy cause
– it certainly worked wonders last
Wednesday - 255 euros found
their way into the basket.
