Swansea Little Theatre

Swansea Little Theatre (SLT) was established in 1924 in Southend, Mumbles and was the first Little Theatre in Wales.
The Company presented plays in many venues and established itself as the foremost non-professional English language theatre company in Wales.

Dylan Thomas was a member in the early 1930s and according to local newspaper critiques, was an accomplished and polished actor. We maintained our link through his daughter the late Aeronwy Thomas Ellis, who was a very active and supportive President of our Theatre, we now welcome Huw Dylan Ellis as our new president. We reached outside Wales, having numerous plaudits for our “Under Milk Wood” at the Edinburgh Festival and even performing before Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother. Many members have gone on to achieve success in professional theatre.
