The Wall Around Shirley is a new and absurd play for ambitious souls seeking recognition and fulfilment. A macabre performance full of symbolism, absurd burn-outs, and flawed self-insights.

The fiercely ambitious Shirley is about to be promoted. She fervently dreams of a top position. Only then will her colleagues finally appreciate her again. But just as she is ready for her career upgrade, she suddenly wakes up in a vast, endless field of grass. &nbsp; Shirley doesn’t remember how she got there. Meanwhile, her boss is impatiently waiting for her return.

In the field, the striving Shirley encounters a group of very strange ‘colleagues’. She becomes ensnared in inconvenient situations with them. The prickly discussions, tight deadlines, and stressful environment that Shirley has to deal with are not without consequences.&nbsp; The harder she tries to run, the more abruptly she is brought to a halt.

Shirley wants to break through her barriers, but how does that actually work? Schwung brings you a brand new performance about unstable shouting, taking action, winning and losing, but especially about knowing what you want in life.

Experience "The Wall Around Shirley," an absurd play in Breda full of symbolism and humour. Discover the struggle for recognition and self-awareness!
