A Taste of Honey, a Play by Shelagh Delaney

4.0

A very dismal, funny, and emotional piece of work about lives of quiet desperation-in short, a play that Morrissey would lovingly steal from (there is a strong argument to make that the Smiths are the greatest working class band). The play is defiantly working class, but its characters are witty and funny, even as they're drawn from some pretty clear archetypes. They contain huge reserves of loneliness and love, and no one to give it to. One of those works that Moz fans like myself turn to to understand their hero, but then embrace on its own merit.
