Cosh Boy
This juvenile-delinquency drama would be renamed MASTER CROOK when going to the West End in December 1951 (qv). Other titles had already been tried; for example, for the final date on this tour it was called UNDER AGE. After the West End, however, it largely reverted to COSH BOY, and was made into a film under that title in August 1952.
