SILENCE FULL OF MUSIC

My tears are like the quiet drift
Of petals from some magic rose;
And all my grief flows from the rift
Of unremembered skies and snows. 
I think, that if I touched the earth,
It would crumble;
It is so sad and beautiful,
So tremulously like a dream.
‘Clown in the Moon’ by Dylan Thomas (age 14)

A film to mark the closing (for now) of My Perfect Mind, to welcome the late burgeoning spring, and to celebrate the wonder of words and the potency of silence.

Postscript
Listen to an interview Edward and Paul Hunter did for Theatre Voice in which they discuss the conception and nature of the hugely successful My Perfect Mind. The interview was recorded at the Young Vic on 25 April 2013. It runs forty minutes and can be downloaded in mp3 form from the Theatre Voice website.

  1. THANK YOU! As always, the images, spoken text and its presentation evoke so much more than mere performance. The interview was wonderful, and made me very much regret there is an Atlantic Ocean between New York City and London's Young Vic!

  5. Dylan Thomas was one of my favorite poets while I was in high school. Sad poems but meaningful. The video was great as well and it is the type that I would buy youtube views for just to get some more attention for it.
