What would drive a young stable boy into a fit of rage?

"This is an exhilarating experience" – Evening Star
Richard Burton received an Academy Award® nomination for Best Actor for his performance as Martin Dysert, a psychiatrist determined to unravel the disturbed mind of Alan Strang (Peter Firth), a young stable boy, who in a fit of rage violently blinds six stable horses. Dysert is assigned by the courts to probe the young man's mind in order to understand the reasons for such a violent act. But the psychiatrist, who is battling demons of his own, wonders if he can save the boy - and whether saving him at all is the right thing to do.

Now a major West End theatre production.
