Youth at the Helm is a 1934 British play, adapted from the German play Hau-ruck (1933) by Paul Vulpius (a pen name of Hans Adler) and Ralph Arthur Roberts, and the Hungarian play Helyet az ifjúságnak (1933) by Ladislas Fodor and László Lakatos.

Other titles of the play were Help yourself (Britain), Jugend voran (Germany) and L'affare Kubinsky (Italy).

The play served as the basis for the 1936 film Jack of All Trades starring Jack Hulbert.[1]
