'SHIRLEY VALENTINE'
by Willy Russell
Directed by Danny Tooby
We present this famous play from the pen of Willy Russell
The heroine in this actor's tour-de-force is an ordinary middle class English housewife. As she prepares chips and egg for dinner, she ruminates on her life and tells 'the wall' about her husband, her children, her past, and an invitation from a girlfriend to join her on holiday in Greece to search for romance and adventure. Ultimately, Shirley does escape to Greece....
This hilariously engaging play was a hit in London and New York, performed by Pauline Collins, who later recreated her rôle on film garnering an Oscar nomination
Danny Tooby once again, exchanges the glitz of the panto and the call of the spotlights for the Director's chair for our first play of 2026
Tickets for 'Shirley Valentine' will go on sale on-line in January 2026 and are £8.00 each (no concession) plus booking fee via the TLT web-site
