Under Milk Wood
play by Thomas
Under Milk Wood, play for voices by Welsh poet Dylan Thomas, performed in 1953 and published in 1954. Originally written as a radio play, Under Milk Wood is sometimes presented as a staged drama. Richly imaginative in language and characterization and fertile in comic invention, the play evokes a day in the lives of the inhabitants of a small Welsh town.
