A single day in a spotlessly clean kitchen behind a family delicatessen.
The British premiere of a play first seen in Paris in 1980 and subsequently in Brussels and Toronto. On each occasion it played to a controversial reception and capacity houses.
You can access the script of this play via the British Library’s MPS Modern Playscripts Collection.
Regular audience member in the 1980s, Jacci Todd remembers the pickets being outside the theatre when Delicatessen was on. Interviewed by Toni Tsaera.
