An omniscient narrator invites the audience to listen to the dreams and innermost thoughts of the inhabitants of the fictional small Welsh fishing village Llareggub (bugger all backwards). They include Mrs Ogmore-Pritchard, relentlessly nagging her two dead husbands: Captain Cat, reliving his seafaring times: the two Mrs Dai Breads: Organ Morgan, obsessed with his music: and Polly Garter, pining for her dead lover. Later, the town awakens and, aware now of how their feelings affect whatever they do, we watch them go about their daily business.
