Summary/Abstract: In the quotation above Marsha Norman refers to the situation in American theatre, but her statement can also be applied to Great Britain. In this study we are concerned with the mother-daughter relationship in British drama, which has become an important theme in the dramatic work of feminist playwrights such as Shelagh Delaney, Ann Jellicoe, Jill Fleming, Sarah Daniels, Louise Page and Sharman Macdonald, among others.
