Hey everyone -

My name is Ryan Wagner, and I'm the Associate Artistic Director of the Coeurage Theatre Company in Los Angeles. We're a brand new company in the middle of our first season right now. This summer, we'll be doing Dylan Thomas' "Under Milk Wood", and I want to make sure that we do it well. I've already read a small mountain of books and watched anything I can find on YouTube, but I'm looking to get a little more indepth.

I'm looking to dialogue with any Welsh people, in person or over Skype, who would be interested in educating an American about Welsh culture, behavior, and the many references within the text of Milk Wood. The last thing I want to do is "Americanize" the beautiful work that Dylan Thomas created, and I'll be eternally grateful for anyone who can help me out.

To anyone in Los Angeles specifically, I'd love to find a Welsh church or pub...especially if there's a rugby game on

Thank you all in advance!!

Ryan
