Abstract

This autobiography by veteran theatre director Joan Littlewood, responsible for some of the greatest and most unconventional theatrical successes of the century, such as Oh What A Lovely and the plays of Brendan Behan and Shelagh Delaney, presents an idiosyncratic account of her life, from her birth in London just after the outbreak of World War I to her years touring with Theatre Workshop, her time at London's Theatre Royal, Stratford; her campaign for the Fun Palace, and her work with students and actors worldwide.
