by Ann Jellicoe. Set in a cockney neighborhood of London, it combines realism, mysticism, music, dance, and ritual to create a powerful, feminist myth about modern civilization. A prize-winner in the 1956 playwright’s competition by The Observer, it was first staged by the Royal Court Theatre in 1958 and directed by George Devine and Jellicoe. Although originally a commercial failure, the play was later performed all over the world in many different languages. Jellicoe revised the original 1958 version in 1962 to create a better play.
