MCQs on the language. Language in My Mother Said I Never Should by Charlotte Keatley, which draws on emotion, relationship, childhood rhymes, birth, life, work, protest and death. The language is simple, clear and modern, which makes the richness of its subtext all the more outstanding. The women in the play can barely communicate to one another without causing offense or dragging up old grievances. Interspersed with the scenes set in real time are those of the Wasteground, in which the characters as children communicate in the long-remembered superstitious short-hand of the playground.
