Timothy West plays a father fighting to clear the name of his son in this lavish period version of Terence Rattigan's 1941 play, based on a real incident that made headlines in 1908.

The Winslow Boy follows a family's attempts to overturn the conviction for theft of their youngest boy, a stain which would have ruined the whole family. It has one of the most devastating legal cross-examinations in theatre, but also offered an acute insight into how love and solidarity can flourish even in the most repressed, stiff-upper-lip middle class English families.

A show about human warmth and the class-ridden society of pre-war Britain, with a stellar cast, this promises to be a thoughtful and moving show.
