Sheridan Smith stars in Willy Russell's one-woman play about a working-class housewife rediscovering herself.
Shirley - a working-class housewife from Liverpool - feels stuck in a rut. Her family treats her like a servant and she feels alone next to her emotionally distant husband. When her best friend wins a holiday to Greece, Shirley packs her bags, leaves a note in the kitchen, and jets off for a fortnight of rest and relaxation. While in Greece, she begins to rediscover the parts of herself she lost during her marriage.
Two-time Olivier Award-winning actress Sheridan Smith stars in this revival of Willy Russell's play, directed by three-time Olivier Award-nominated director Matthew Dunster.
