The Everyman is celebrating its 60th anniversary with a revival of the timeless classic
Shirley Valentine, the 'desperate scousewife' who spoke to a generation of women, is heading home to the Liverpool Everyman.
Shirley Valentine is the tale of a woman's journey of self-discovery. At the age of 42, Shirley is left with an empty nest, an emotionally distant husband and only ‘the wall’ for company. When her best friend offers the trip of a lifetime to Greece, she seizes her chance and discovers both her sensual side and her sense of self-worth.
During the original run of Shirley Valentine, Noreen Kershaw developed appendicitis. She didn't have an understudy, so Russell himself ended up playing the role of Shirley for three weeks. The play went on to have enormous global success. In 1988 it opened in the West End in London, with Pauline Collins playing Shirley. The following year, the play went to Broadway, with Ellen Burstyn eventually taking over from Collins in the title role.
"I can’t wait to work with Helen and Stephen on bringing the play back home and seeing Shirley strut her stuff across the boards on which she was born”.
