An Audience with Shurl
Young Shurl leaves a deeply dysfunctional home deep in the Welsh Valleys to follow her hero - international diva dame Shirley Bassey - across the world and back. But when the two women come face to face, will it all go alright on the night? Or will there be tears for the wrong reason? A tragicomic tale of one woman's journey of self-discovery. Not to be missed!
For one night only Alexander Bar's Upstairs Theatre is proud to host this international work of heart-felt art.

'Compelling' THE STAGE
Sue Bevan's captivating one-woman show was nominated for the prestigious Outstanding Performance Award at Prague Fringe, and got rapturous reviews from critics and audiences alike at Edinburgh Fringe 2014. After a standing ovation at UCT's Women Playwrights International Conference last month, we now catch An Audience With Shurl before it returns to the UK for the start of an international tour.
