A tried-and-tested stage adaptation of Barry Hines' novel A Kestrel
for a Knave, about a troubled young boy who finds and trains a
kestrel. 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.
Lawrence Till's adaptation of Barry Hines' 1968 novel retains its
gritty charm and popular staying power. Kes was first performed at
West Yorkshire Playhouse in 1999.
