Mr Jones

Stephen Jones, the self-proclaimed rugby prodigy of the small Welsh village Aberfan, has just made the kick of his life. As he boasts to local nurse Angharad, 150,000 tonnes of coal are careening down the hillside, towards Pantglas Junior School. Weaving between Welsh and English, Mr Jones is a brand new piece of drama which incorporates poetry, verbatim and first hand accounts as Stephen and Angharad navigate the infamous 1966 disaster and its irreversible aftermath,
