Kees Prins tells stories from his remarkable youth and sings matching songs by Paul McCartney.
What do the songs of a Beatle and the life of a boy from the provinces have in common? Nothing. Except that the boy lived through his adventurous youth while those songs stormed the charts. 'Yesterday', 'Penny Lane' and 'Can't Buy Me Love'; one masterpiece after another filled the airwaves, while Hope, Misery, Joy and Sorrow shaped the soul of a growing young man.
In 'YESTERDAY' Kees Prins tells stories from his remarkable youth. Not gratuitous anecdotes without substance, but real stories with a beginning and an end, with humor and tragedy, bravado and compassion. And each story has its own song. In this light-hearted and moving 'coming of age' production, Kees sings the songs of Paul McCartney, with the latter as a 'fly on the wall'. All true stories.
