Shirley Valentine

"Nicola Cavendish is simply magnificent, a sure-fire smash hit"
— CBC RADIO

For Shirley Bradshaw, maiden name Valentine, the years have gone by far too quickly, and she is now mired in an “unused life.” Unhappy in her marriage, taken advantage of by her children and ignored by pretty much everyone, Shirley jumps at the chance to escape. With wit and a colourful vocabulary, Shirley commits subtle anarchy and has the adventure of a lifetime, but what does she do when it is time to head home? Heartwarming and inspiring, Nicola Cavendish returns to MTC to reprise her role in Shirley Valentine, a play that speaks to everyone who has ever wanted more.
