"A Splendid new version" (The Times) of the well-known film and novel--a bestseller for over thirty years.

Billy, a disaffected young boy, has problems at school and at home: he's neglected by his mother, beaten by his brother and bullied on all sides. He adopts a fledgling kestrel and treats it with all the tenderness he has never known. Slowly, he begins to see for the first time what he could achieve if only he tried.

Review:
Lawrence Till's skilful adaptation... offers a series of sure-fire scenes... Hines story retains an undeniable emotional pull. - The Times --Independent on Sunday

Sensitively scripted and stunningly staged, Kes is essentially about a community which fails its young. --The Times
Synopsis:
Adapted by Lawrence Till, this play brings to the stage Barry Hines' classic story of a supposedly backward boy, shunned by his family and contemporaries, who finds solace and hope training a kestrel.
