Kes

"This new stage adaptation of Barry Hines' well-known film and novel once again proves its gritty charm and popular staying power..." --Back cover. " 'Sensitively scripted and stunningly staged, Kes is essentially about a community which fails its young. At its heart is Billy, an apparently backward kid, neglected by his tarty mother, beaten up by his older brother and bullied on all sides. Billy's solace is his pet kestrel, on which he lavishes all the tenderness he has never known.' --The Times" --Back cover. "First staged at the West Yorkshire Playhouse, 'Lawrence Till's skilful adaptation...offers a series of sure-fire scenes...Hines' story retains an undeniable emotional pull' --Independent--Back cover." Filmed as Kes by Ken Loach in 1969, Barry Hines' novel is a modern classic, and is a set GCSE text. Lawrence Till's play version is ideal for classroom work and drama groups.
