Step into the imagination of a genius and follow us on a journey through snow, cats and melancholy.

    Music and arrangements by Cerys Matthews and Mason Neely from the album Dylan Thomas A Child’s Christmas, Poems and Tiger Eggs. Poems by Dylan Thomas. Ballet Cymru, nominated Best Independent Company by the Critics Circle UK National Dance Awards, and winners of the Best Dance Production 2017 at the Wales Theatre Awards, present a sparkling and refreshing ballet.
