Supernovas for Super Loners
Written by Ryan Mellish
Dylan's an aspiring writer who feels totally alone and inconsequential in the suffocatingly small-town Swansea. After a night out gone awry on Wind Street, an unexpected intervention from a stranger sets events in motion that threaten to end in total catastrophe as fiction and reality begin to hurtle into one another.
Supernovas for Super Loners is a new musical that explores the links between societal inequality and the mental health crisis through a Welsh lens. Drawing influence from folk, pop and a host of other musical genres, Supernovas is a grand yet intimate story about connection and belonging.
