The Studio at the Grand Opera House
Winner of the Laurence Olivier Award for Best New Comedy and the Tony Award for Best Play, and from the writer of Blood Brothers, Willy Russell’s Shirley Valentine is a quirky, humorous and wise ‘everywoman’s’ story. Bright Umbrella presents their telling of Shirley's big adventure.
Mourning the loss of her youth and in a rut, Shirley feels as if her family treats her like a servant and she finds herself regularly alone and talking to the wall. When her best friend wins a competition for two to Greece, she packs her bags, leaves a note on the cupboard door in the kitchen, and heads for a fortnight of rest and relaxation. Will Greece be all she hoped for? What will happen after her holiday when she has to return to her humdrum life?
Bright Umbrella steps out of The Sanctuary Theatre, East Belfast, as its home venue undergoes restoration and development work. During this time, the company will bring its shows exclusively to the Grand Opera House Studio.
