Posted by DCA Theater on August 10, 2009 in July-December 2009 Season, Under Milk Wood

Photos by Daniel Smith, Caffeine Theatre Dramaturg

In just two short weeks, Caffeine Theater opens Under Milk Wood, Dylan Thomas’ dark but funny play about the dreams and waking lives of a fictional Welsh town. An iconic favorite since it was first broadcast as a radio play in 1954, the play’s 47 quirky characters bring to life their inner longings bubbling beneath the surface of the town’s daily life, endearing us to humanity’s bawdy and magnificent possibilities. Paul S. Holmquist directs this classic but utterly relevant play with an intimate and physically intense ensemble of Chicago theater veterans and emerging talent.

Opening Night Reception: Thursday, August 27
After the show, ticket-holders will enjoy food, drinks and live music by singer/songwriter Andy Wagner
