Alan Sillitoe's ground-breaking picture of 1950's Nottingham, as seen through the eyes of the unforgettable Arthur Seaton, was immortalised on screen by Albert Finney.
Taking Sillitoe's brilliant novel as its inspiration, this fast-moving stage adaptation brings Arthur raging back to life. Classic kitchen sink drama fused with high-energy action tells the funny, passionate and painful tale of the original angry young man and the three women in his life.
"Amanda Whittington's stage adaptation makes the almost 50-year-old classic seem less nostalgic than prophetic". The Guardian.
