Shirley Valentine starring Norma Sheahan
Treat yourself to an evening of laugher, triumph, and a hilarious journey of rediscovery with Norma Sheahan, one of Ireland’s leading dramatic actors.

Meet Shirley, a 45-year-old housewife, trapped in a dreary marriage and humdrum life. As she prepares her husband’s dinner – egg and chips – Shirley wonders when she lost her hopeful, youthful self. Feeling isolated, she resorts to full-blown (although somewhat one-sided) conversations with her bestie – her kitchen wall and dreams of excitement beyond her grim role as “St. Joan of the fitted units”.

Approx running time: Act 1 (1hr) – 20min interval – Act 2 (40mins)
