Listen in as Shirley (Pauline Collins, Bleak House) confides to her kitchen wall that she longs to be ?the girl who used to be me.? A middle-aged Liverpool housewife, she dreams of a holiday in Greece but feels doomed to a mundane existence with her gruff and insensitive husband Joe, whose main concern is the evening meal. An accidental meeting with a former schoolmate (Joanna Lumley, Absolutely Fabulous) confirms Shirley?s sense of lost identity. When a chum wins an all-expenses-paid trip for two to Greece, Shirley lives her fantasy of watching the sunset, ?drinking wine in a land where the grapes are grown? and attempting to resist the charms of the rakish local, Costas (Tom Conti, Reuben, Reuben). Willy Russell has adapted his Tony? Award-winning play, and Pauline Collins has recreated her Tony? and BAFTA? Award-winning role. Plot your seaside escape and enjoy the impressive performances.
