- Elizabeth MacLennan (actress)
Elizabeth MacLennan (born Glasgow) is a Scottish actress and radical popular theatre practitioner. She helped to found Theatre Company (in 1971) and Scotland (in 1973). She performed in plays with 7:84 throughout the 1970s and 1980s, in such classics of British popular theatre as "The Cheviot, the Stag and the Black, Black Oil" (1973), "Trees in the Wind", and "Men Should Weep". In 1990, she published an account of her time with the company, entitled "The Moon Belongs to Everyone", in which she calls the late John McGrath her "major 'influence' and life partner" (viii).
