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.

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.
