Workshop, followed by a showing of Love Somehow, a film written by Phil Bowen.

 

The workshop looks at and develops Dylan Thomas’s addiction to synaesthesia – seeing sounds and hearing sights – and aims to both simplify and unravel certain instinctive understandings and write beyond them.

 

Love Somehow is a 30-minute multi award-winning film written by Phil Bowen, made by Kate Cheeseman, and featuring Sally George and Griff Rhys Jones. It is about Caitlin Thomas and is set in Laugharne.

 

Phil Bowen is a poet, performer, biographer and playwright who has worked in over 500 schools in more than thirty counties as a poet-in-education since becoming a freelance writer in 1994. He has published three full collections – Variety’s Hammer and Starfly, both with Stride, and Nowhere’s Far- New & Selected Poems 1990 -2008 with Salt Publications, printed and reprinted in 2009. He is part of a duo Time n Time with Ric Hool.
