Falcon Theatre is proud to present Shirley Valentine written by Willy Russell and directed by Andrew Barnicle, the fourth production of the Falcon Theatre's 2012-2013 Subscription Season. This critically acclaimed Tony-nominated one-woman show stars Deedee Rescher, who is best known for her comedy work on screen in Ferris Bueller's Day Off and King of Queens, but was last seen on the Falcon stage in Garry Marshall's own Everybody Say "Cheese!" in 2009.

This transformative comedy follows middle-aged Liverpool housewife Shirley Valentine, who is trapped in humdrum domesticity, frequently talking to her kitchen walls just for a bit of conversation. But when her best friend wins a trip-for-two to Greece, Shirley is suddenly pulled away from her boredom into a life-altering adventure. Faced with romantic possibilities and sudden self-awareness, Shirley begins to see the world, and herself, in a different light.
