A new collection of plays from Willy Russell, one of Britain's
best-loved dramatists, features the smash hits Blood Brothers, Our
Day Out: The Musical and Shirley Valentine as well as the
previously unpublished John, Paul, George, Ringo . . . and Bert.
Blood Brothers: A Liverpudlian West Side Story, this is the story
of twin brothers separated at birth because their mother cannot
afford to keep them both. 'One of those rare exceptions, where a
show continues to pack a punch after many years on the road and in
the West End' - What's On Stage, (5 stars) Our Day Out: The
Musical: Mrs Kay's 'Progress Class' are unleashed for a day's coach
trip to Conway Castle in Wales - in an exuberant celebration of the
joys and agonies of growing up and being footloose, fourteen and
free from school. 'One of those truly magical theatrical
experiences that should very definitely not be missed' - Stage
Shirley Valentine: The story of a put-upon mother and housewife who
leaves the drudgery of cooking dinner for her husband, packs her
bags and heads for the sun. 'Shirley is the star of her own
monodrama, her gabbing made theatrical in a stream of stories and
impersonations that are rooted in essential loneliness and reaction
against domestic frustration . . . memorable and joyous' -
Independent John, Paul, George, Ringo . . . and Bert: Russell's
first major hit, a musical about the Beatles, won the Evening
Standard and London Critics' awards for Best New Musical of 1974.
'Why has no-one done it before? Perhaps only a scouser like Willy
Russell could have the self-confidence to tackle Liverpool's great
phenomenon . . . it's funny, incisive, well-acted and makes its
points without any arty philosophising' - Time Out. Willy Russell
Plays: 2 features an introduction from the playwright.
