A Taste of Honey Shelagh Delaney
A Taste of Honey comments on, and puts into question, class, race, gender and sexual orientation in mid-twentieth century Britain. It became known as a "kitchen sink" play, part of a genre revolutionising British theatre at the time.
The Birthday Party Harold Pinter Part 1
This play might work as a comparison with "A Streetcar Named Desire". It is a play about power struggle. You might compare the two Stanleys? or Blanche?
