What Would Helen Mirren Do?

A laugh-out-loud play about love, work, letting go, and finding out who we really want to be.

Susan is a long-term supermarket checkout operator from Oldham. She’s never had to give much thought to role models until she gets promoted and is forced to adopt one.

Oscar winning actress and international star Helen Mirren is an unlikely choice, but Susan’s life changes dramatically when she starts to ask herself, ‘What would Helen Mirren do?’

This one-woman comedy play stars Anita Parry and is written by Josie Melia and is directed by Peter Ellis who is probably best known for playing Chief Superintendent Brownlow in ITV1’s The Bill. He is married to Anita and this is the first time he has directed her.
