Captain Cat and his Get-Out-Of Bed Bell
The larger than life, bronze statue of Dylan Thomas’s fictional 'Captain Cat', the blind sea captain stands at the Sea entrance to the South Dock, in Swansea's Maritime Quarter.
In the famous radio play 'Under Milk Wood' written by Dylan Thomas, the blind old sea captain, known as Captain Cat, is one of the play’s most important characters as he often acts as a narrator. The plaque under the statue contains the line “the sleepers are rung out of sleep with his loud get-out-of-bed bell”
'Captain Cat' was sculpted by Robert Thomas and unveiled on 1st March 1990.
