Shirley Valentine in Kilcullen

Eve Productions will present Willy Russell’s Shirley Valentine at the Town Hall theatre for two nights, on Thursday 29th and Friday 30th October at 8p.m.

Shirley Bradshaw, nee Valentine, is an average Liverpool housewife. Her children are all grown up, yet she is still forced to serve her husband Joe’s tea on the table at the exact same time every night.

Her journey from resigned fatalism to falling in love with the idea of living is brave, poignant and uplifting.

The show will be performed by local drama teacher Evelyn O’Sullivan and Communications and Drama teacher Eunice Lavelle.

This is the first of many projects they would like to undertake.

Tickets are now on sale from Evelyn 087 6441504 or Eunice 087 2750418 for €12.
