The Last Wild
An enthralling world premiere of Piers Torday’s much-loved story.
In a future where animals no longer exist, 12-year-old Kester lives in a silent, quarantined world… until one night a flock of excited pigeons and a bossy cockroach start talking to him!
Flown to a place where the last creatures in the land have survived, Kester is thrown into an extraordinary adventure where he must decide how far he will go to save the last of the wild. Packed with action, heart and humour, The Last Wild is an epic adventure about courage, friendship and fighting for a world worth saving.
Adapted by Jude Christian from the best-selling book by Piers Torday, winner of the Guardian Children’s Fiction Prize, and directed by Unicorn’s Artistic Director Rachel Bagshaw, The Last Wild is the Unicorn’s first co-production with the National Theatre – touring nationwide in 2027.
