A selection of the musical numbers by writer | composer, Kieran Baile, featuring some of the original cast members. Coal, culture and community come to life in this brand-new piece of Welsh musical theatre celebrating the history, humour, hardships and hiraeth of the South Wales Valleys. At a time when coal was king and miners’ lives were cheap, ‘Turning the Wheel’ tells the story of how a deep sense of community spirit and camaraderie inspired the working classes of an industrial Wales to make their voices heard.
Following its sell-out debut run at the Park & Dare Theatre in March 2024, ‘Turning the Wheel’ returns to give new audiences a taste of this brand-new, Welsh musical packed with well-crafted, catchy songs. Welsh translation by Gwawr Loader
