description: To begin at the beginning; It is spring, moonless night in the small town, starless and bible-black. From their dreamy dreams to their word-day gossip, Dylan Thomas' lyrical masterpiece traces the lives of a group of villagers in a tiny Welsh seaport. Blind Captain Cat sits in the window of Schooner House, listening as the boys and girls, the postman, the gossips, dressmaker, preacher, and publican all pass by. This BBC radio drama is the full version broadcast in 1963. With his incomparable rich Welsh voice, Richard Burton reads the role that Thomas himself was originally to have played.
