It stars Sean Bean, James Nelson Joyce, Jack McMullen, Hannah Onslow, Darci Shaw and more and Liverpool Film Office has once again helped our city shine on the big screen. 🎬

The Liverpool City Region Production Fund supported the drama which captures the grit and the grandeur of the city’s streets and skyline perfectly.

The series will premiere on BBC ONE & IPlayer on Sunday 23 March and it’s a MUST-WATCH!

Yesterday The Guide’s Jay Hynd hosted a Q&A with creator Stephen Butchard and cast. Watch as we meet James, Hannah & Jack from the show to find out all about your new favourite Liverpool-based drama.

Audiences are LOVING Shirley Valentine at Liverpool’s Everyman Theatre. 🤩

Willy Russel’s classic is on right now and the reviews and reaction has been incredible.

Get ready to embark on a heartfelt journey of self-discovery and laughter as Willy Russell’s iconic one-woman show, Shirley Valentine, returns home to the Liverpool Everyman as part of the theatre’s 60th birthday celebrations.

Originally commissioned and staged by the Everyman, Shirley Valentine promises to reignite the magic of Russell’s timeless tale with Liverpool actor Helen Carter stepping into the role of Shirley under the direction of Stephen Fletcher.

Willy Russell holds a special place in the hearts of Liverpool’s artistic community. With an incredible career that spans decades, Russell’s association with the Everyman dates back to his breakthrough as a writer with productions like John Paul George Ringo… & Bert in 1974.

His return to the Everyman in 1986 saw the birth of the iconic Shirley Valentine, a play that has touched the hearts of audiences worldwide.

Bill Kenwright CBE has been remembered today at his “favourite theatre in the world”.

The Liverpool Empire has unveiled a sculpture created by acclaimed Liverpool sculptor Tom Murphy as the theatre held its 100th anniversary gala evening for Blood Brothers.
