With apologies for the obvious post title : RIP to Shelagh Delaney. A true artistic original, the first to get a female working-class perspective onto the British stage,  A Taste of Honey remains a beautiful work. Inspiring Morrissey was a bit of a bonus too.  More here.

Postscript: Pointed piece by Belinda Webb in The Guardian bemoaning the lack of, yet need for, an heir to Sheila today, and a tribute from Moz himself.
