LOS ANGELES - Sept. 11, 2014 - PRLog -- Opening its 40th Anniversary Season and paying homage to the great Welsh poet Dylan Thomas on the 100th anniversary of his birth, L.A. Theatre Works records his immortal “play for voices” with a distinguished cast of Welsh and Welsh-American actors. Sara Sugarman directs Matthew Rhys (The Americans), Kate Burton (Scandal), Laura Evans (BBC’s The Basil Brush Show), John Francis (Invasion Roswell), Jason Hughes (Midsomer Murders), Christopher Monger (director, The Englishman Who Went Up A Hill But Came Down A Mountain), Cerris Morgan-Moyer (Days of Our Lives), Jo Osmond (Snow White and the Huntsman) and Morgan Ritchie (son of Kate Burton, grandson of Richard) in Thomas' intensely beautiful, poignant and sublimely funny linguistic tour-de-force about the salty little fishing village of Llareggub — an enchanted spot where the wicked are forgiven and their indiscretions transformed into rich fuel for comedy. Original music is composed by Ceiri Torjussen. Each performance will be recorded live in front of an audience (without sets or costumes), and the final version will air on LATW’s syndicated radio theater series, broadcasting weekly on public radio stations nationwide (locally, in Southern California, on KPFK 90.7 FM) and available for streaming on demand at www.latw.org.Sept. 18-21; James Bridges Theater at UCLA’s School of Theater, Film and Television, 235 Charles E. Young Drive, Los Angeles, CA 90095; $15-$60; 310.827.0889; Join us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/LATheatreWorks (http://www.facebook.com/pages/LA-Theatre-Works/67857507770); follow us on Twitter @latheatreworks
