| Description |
Kingdom's recreation of the American lecture circuit tours undertaken by Dylan Thomas. Dylan Thomas: Return Journey is a beautifully crafted and performed tribute to the genius of Wales' favourite son. Welsh actor Bob Kingdom and director Anthony Hopkins recreate the atmosphere of Dylan Thomas' own live recitals; the soaring majesty of his voice, his 'unmade-bed' appearance, his isolation and despair, but above all the passionate, moving imagery of his poems and his wickedly observed humour.
