Synopsis Set in Salford, ‘A Taste of Honey’ is an iconic coming-of-age British drama that focuses on teenager Jo, and her dysfunctional relationship with her drunk and selfish mother, Helen. “A Taste Of Honey was Shelagh Delaney’s first play written when she was only nineteen. It was originally intended as a novel, but Delaney turned it into a play because she hoped to revitalise British theatre and address social issues that she thought were not being presented. A Taste of Honey comments on, and puts into question class, race, age of sexual consent, gender, sexual orientation and illegitimacy in mid-twentieth-century Britain. Studying this text for GCSE?
