Shelagh Delaney was born in 1939 in Salford in north-west Britain. She left school at sixteen and had a lot of different jobs. When she was eighteen she wrote the script for "A Taste of Honey" where she wanted to realistically portray the lives of people from the working class. She sent the play to Joan Littlewood who ran a theatre company in London and he was impressed. | |||
