Synopsis: about the adolescent Jo and her relationships with those about her - her irresponsible, roving mother Helen and her mum's newly acquired drunken husband, the black sailor who leaves her pregnant and Geoffrey the homosexual art student who moves in to help with the baby. It is also about Jo's unshakeable optimism throughout her trials.This story of a mother and daughter relationship (imitated in other British plays since) set in working class Manchester continues to enthral new generations of readers and audiences. | ||||
