Originally written as "A Play For Voices" By Dylan Thomas the work was revisited and extended for a reading at the Kaufmann Auditorium in the USA in May 1953. On his return to the UK, Thomas was commissioned by the BBC to write this piece, performed on 25th January 1954. 

Recorded With The Co-operation Of The British Broadcasting Corporation

An omniscient narrator invites the audience to listen to the dreams and innermost thoughts of the inhabitants of the fictional small Welsh fishing village, Llareggub.

They include Mrs. Ogmore-Pritchard, relentlessly nagging her two dead husbands; Captain Cat, reliving his seafaring times; the two Mrs. Dai Breads; Organ Morgan, obsessed with his music; and Polly Garter, pining for her dead lover. Later, the town awakens and, aware now of how their feelings affect whatever they do, we watch them go about their daily business.
