A saint who plucks out her own eye to escape marriage. A banker so competitive he’d rather sink with his ship than share his top hat. A fearless blind Welsh girl who sails out into the Irish Sea to find the great catch her grandfather dreamed of.

These are some of the characters in Windsongs of the Blessed Bay, a vivid adventure in theatricality, music, comedy and puppetry which has been developed in Swansea and is about to tour Wales.

Featuring Swansea folk-music favourite Andy Tamlyn Jones and a cast of leading Welsh actors, Windsongs of the Blessed Bay has been created by the team which had such a hit across the nation with their Lloyd George play The Wizard, the Goat and the Man Who Won the War.
