SHIRLEY VALENTINE to be Presented at Metro Theatre in January

Metro Theatre will present Shirley Valentine by Willy Russell Thursday to Saturday, January 14 to January 29, 2023.

Shirley Valentine is a romantic comedy about a bored housewife with no job, few friends, kids who have flown the nest, and a monotonous marriage. When a friend invites Shirley on a trip to Greece it represents more than just two weeks in the sun. The prospect of such an adventure is fraught with anxiety for Shirley who is afraid that making a change won't lead to anything better. "So much of life is unused", says Shirley. The trip becomes a chance for Shirley to do something deliciously daring by ditching her apron, donning a bikini, and reclaiming abandoned dreams.
