The Day the Man Stepped on the Moon - Wales Millennium Centre / Canolfan Mileniwm Cymru

There is great truth behind the phrase: “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind”...and it doesn’t only apply to extraordinary situations like space travel. Many small, everyday gestures build beautiful and meaningful daily achievements.

We propose a hypothetical journey to 21 July, 1969, when the whole world was watching a great feat. But what was happening down on Earth?

This is a human, poetic story about people who, far from walking on the Moon, demonstrate the beauty of life - with its light and darkness, its strengths and vulnerabilities. These people witnessed that historic day when, for the first time, a man walked on the Moon.

You are invited to join us on this journey into life - what it was, is, and will be. The countdown begins to reach the Sea of Tranquillity.
