Kitchen sink realism is a British cultural movement that developed in the late 1950s and early 1960s in theatre, art, novels, film and television plays, whose protagonists usually could be described as "angry young men" who were disillusioned with modern society.

The harsh, realistic style contrasted sharply with the escapism of the previous generation's so-called "well-made plays".
