Event Description

Samuel Bennett leaves his home in South Wales to pursue a career in London.

Setting out with an attitude of reckless, nihilistic purpose, he encounters a nightmarish city. A room full of furniture, an assortment of bizarre characters and an embarrassing first sexual experience in a cold bath. Join Samuel as he meanders

through this dreamlike world, all with a beer bottle stuck on his little finger.

Dylan Thomas’s gloriously surreal coming-of-age and unfinished novel is given new life by acclaimed writer, Lucy Gough (Hollyoaks, Wuthering Heights, Creative Wales Award winner) in a special production for the Thomas centenary.

Mae Samuel Bennett yn gadael ei gartref yn ne Cymru er mwyn dilyn gyrfa yn Llundain. Agwedd ddi-hid a rhyfygus sydd ganddo, ac mae’n canfod dinas hunllefus.

Ystafell yn llawn celfi, casgliad rhyfedd o gymeriadau amrywiol a phrofiad rhywiol cyntaf mewn bath oer sydd ymhell o fod yn ddelfrydol. Ymunwch â Samuel ar daith trwy fyd sydd megis breuddwyd, hyn oll gyda photel gwrw yn sownd ar ei fys bach. Rhydd y ddrama hon fywyd newydd i nofel anorffenedig Dylan Thomas am dyfu ifyny – mewn cynhyrchiad arbennig ar gyfer ei ganmlwyddiant. Yr awdur o fri Lucy Gough sy’n gyfrifol, awdur sydd eisoes wedi ennill gwobr Cymru Creadigol ac wedi ysgrifennu ar gyfer Hollyoaks, ac addasu Wuthering Heights.
