Sheridan Smith makes her long-awaited return to the West End stage in 2023, starring in Willy Russell’s uplifting rom-com Shirley Valentine . Smith delivers a joyful performance as the unappreciated housewife who jets off to Greece at the Duke of York’s Theatre .
Shirley Valentine is a housewife who talks to the kitchen walls as she cooks her husband’s egg and chips. The dreams she had as a younger woman seem like a distant memory, replaced by a family who don’t appreciate her and the drudgery of daily life. But everything could change when her friend wins two tickets to Greece and invites her along. Shirley throws down her cooking utensils in favour of a sunny escape to the Mediterranean, and begins a life-changing adventure.
Shirley Valentine is Willy Russell’s celebrated one-woman play, which many will remember from its 1989 film adaptation starring Pauline Collins . Playwright Russell’s other work includes Educating Rita and Blood Brothers .
Olivier and BAFTA Award winner Sheridan Smith has starred in a host of West End shows including Funny Girl , Little Shop of Horrors and Legally Blonde . On television, she is known for portraying Cilla Black in biopic Cilla , as well as sitcoms Gavin & Stacey and The Royle Family.
Shirley Valentine in London is directed by Olivier Award winner Matthew Dunster , whose most recent work, 2:22 A Ghost Story , has been wowing West End audiences at no less than three different theatres since 2021.
Sheridan Smith steps into the globe-trotting, liberated shoes of a rom-com icon for this revival of the modern classic that teaches us all to follow our dreams. Don’t miss her latest star turn, as Shirley Valentine is open for a strictly limited season.

About Shirley Valentine
Sheridan Smith plays a middle-aged housewife with big dreams in Willy Russell's one-woman play. Shirley Valentine tickets are available now on London Theatre.
On the surface, all seems well for Liverpudlian housewife Shirley Valentine: she’s married, she has children, and she lives the "dream." But her husband shows little affection towards her. As she spends her days cooking her husband’s favourite meal — chips and egg — Shirley dreams of more.
So when she and her friend go to Greece, Shirley sees this as a chance to start again. While on holiday, she meets local man Costas and begins to see the world in a new light. Will she book a return ticket? Shirley Valentine is an ode to owning your own happiness and keeping your fighting spirit.
Willy Russell is perhaps best known for the Blood Brothers musical. Blood Brothers ran in the West End for 24 years, clocking up over 10,000 performances. As well as the musical, Russell created Educating Rita, Our Day Out , and One Summer . Shirley Valentine also wowed London audiences, winning the Olivier Award for Best New Comedy. Pauline Collins also played the lead female on screen; the film picked up two Academy Award nominations.

Shirley Valentine review – Sheridan Smith disarms and dazzles with heart and soul
Duke of York’s theatre, London Willy Russell’s 1986 monologue about a neglected woman’s midlife liberation is given new life in this perceptive production
W illy Russell’s 1986 monologue was a forerunner to the Thelma and Louise era of women who find a second lease of life in middle age. Almost four decades on, its portrait of a Liverpudlian housewife’s transformational trip to the Greek island of her dreams could so easily feel dated.
What is striking about Matthew Dunster’s production is that it leans into the sense of a bygone time and is deceptively passé at the start. There are references to the Milk Tray Man, the drachma and the EEC. Jane, who invites Shirley (Sheridan Smith) on a holiday to Crete, is branded a feminist because she has divorced her husband. Paul Wills’s 80s kitchen set mirrors the pastel colour scheme of Shirley’s mint trousers and pink bat-winged top.
It looks like a poundshop Alan Bennett as Shirley giggles conspiratorially with her glass of wine and talks to herself – and to her kitchen wall. The comedy is of the Saturday night kind with lukewarm, slightly predictable punchlines. She tells us marriage is like the Middle East (“there’s no solution”) and that sex is like going to the supermarket because after all the pushing and shoving you come out with very little.
The light and froth is a cunning trick, the play’s core crisis revealing itself in measures. When it does, it feels real and painful. The deeper, existential elements are powered by Smith’s disarming and quietly dazzling performance. She mines every ounce of cheeky comedy but also builds such surreptitious and organic emotional undercurrents that we buy every moment, and the play is eternally relevant.
Shirley is a woman so lonely she has taken to talking to a wall; a wife and mother who has lost her identity in dutifulness, and a pragmatist who long ago learned to turn her life’s disappointments into jokes.
Slowly the play reveals itself to be about identity, ageing, how we betray our own dreams and become people we don’t recognise, and how we tolerate unhappiness for fear of the unknown.
Russell’s script shows a deep and compassionate understanding of a certain kind of working-class woman at a certain age (though 42 seems rather premature for a midlife crisis now). She is judged not only by the men around her but women too – positively at times – though her daughter tells her that two middle-aged women going to Greece is “disgusting”.
In the second act, Wills’s set now a gorgeous abstraction of glowing pink and blue skies, Shirley’s feelgood message to value every minute of life does not sound mawkish when delivered by Smith. Shirley decides to have a bigger, fuller life and reminds us to do so too. Yes, it is too light and romantic a picture of midlife liberation but it gives us the shivers nonetheless.
Like Russell’s play Educating Rita, this is a work we know better through film, but Smith brings its heart and soul back to the theatre.
At the Duke of York’s theatre, London , until 3 June

Shirley Valentine with Sheridan Smith reviews
Reviews have dropped for the West End production of Shirley Valentine in London with Sheridan Smith – what did the critics make of it?
Willy Russell’s one-woman-play has been revived with acclaimed actress Sheridan Smith making her return to the West End in the role.
Shirley Valentine is the joyous, life-affirming story of the woman who got lost in marriage and motherhood, the woman who wound up talking to the kitchen wall whilst cooking her husband’s chips and egg. But Shirley still has a secret dream. And in her bag, an airline ticket. One day she may just leave a note, saying: ‘Gone! Gone to Greece.’
The new production officially opened at the Duke of York’s Theatre this week and the reviews are out…
Shirley Valentine London reviews
The Guardian- 4/5 “The deeper, existential elements are powered by Smith’s disarming and quietly dazzling performance. She mines every ounce of cheeky comedy but also builds such surreptitious and organic emotional undercurrents that we buy every moment, and the play is eternally relevant.” – Read the full review
The Independent – 5/5 “Sheridan Smith and Shirley Valentine: it’s a match made in theatre heaven. Willy Russell’s 1986 one-woman play is a beloved British classic; Smith is a national treasure. It sounds like it should work, and it really, really does” – Read the full review
Financial Times – 5/5 “Smith single-handedly commands the stage in a transcendent performance as the disillusioned Liverpool housewife determined to unstick herself from a life glued to the kitchen.” – Read the full review
Daily Mail – 5/5 “So loved is Smith as Shirley that when she appears before the interval with suitcase and dressed for the airport, the sight of her costume alone wins a cheer. ” – Read the full review
The I- 4/5 “It’s a mighty ask for one performer to power through more than a hundred minutes of solo speaking on a West End stage, but one of Smith’s many triumphs is the way she looks up and around to make every tier of the audience feel so included.” – Read the full review
London Evening Standard – 4/5 “Willy Russell’s award-winning and hugely popular 1986 monologue about a Liverpool housewife finding herself in Greece now looks like a museum piece. It requires Smith’s specific talents to make it work and she turns it into a charming showcase for them” – Read the full review
The Telegraph – 4/5 “If we loved Smith before, we’re going to fall in love with her all over again. Playing a woman turning over a new leaf, she bustles about her spotless kitchen with consummate ease and vivacity, confiding her manifold unfulfilments as a wife and mother by way of a quirky address to the “wall”. It’s continuously enrapturing.” – Read the full review
Shirley Valentine plays Duke of York’s Theatre, London currently booking through to 3 June 2023.

Following its sell-out run at Dublin’s Gaiety Theatre in Oct 2021 & March /April 2022
treat yourself to an evening of laughter and triumph, as Norma Sheahan,
one of Ireland’s leading dramatic actors, breathes new life into Willy Russell’s effervescent and iconic character
SHIRLEY VALENTINE.
Trapped in a dreary marriage and humdrum life, Shirley wonders when she lost her hopeful, youthful self.
With no support from her demanding husband, snooty neighbour, or self-absorbed teens, Shirley resorts to full-blown (although somewhat one-sided) conversations with her kitchen wall.
So, when a divorced friend asks Shirley to go on a vacation to Greece, she bravely gathers what remains of her dignity and begins a humorous and uplifting voyage of rediscovery.
Shirley with ever-opening eyes, begins to see the world – and herself – in a different light…
but will she ever go back to being “St Joan of the fitted units”?
