Theatre: A Taste of Honey - The Herald Mark Fisher Until Sat Oct 8, 7.30pm, Citizens' Theatre, Gorbals Street, Glasgow, £14 (£6), 0141 429 0022 Spot the Morrissey quotes as TAG theatre company gives an airing to Shelagh Delaney's classic 1950s drama, a play much loved by the early Smiths. And with good justification. Written in 1958, before Delaney was even 20, A Taste of Honey came to be regarded as an icon of the decade, creating a vision of working-class Manchester life that has lost none of its sparkle. It tells the story of teenager Josephine and her love-hate relationship with her mother, exacerbated when the girl becomes pregnant by a black serviceman. Delaney captures their wickedly funny banter and a sense of the poverty, sexual repression and racism of the era. After Glasgow, the play goes on tour; call 0141 552 4949 or see www.tag-theatre.co.uk
