We think the water is trickling behind the tiles & grouting somewhere. We have two great big holes in kitchen ceiling & lots of bubbles. Is it a plumber's job or?

Check for an access on the opposite side of the wall that the faucet is mounted through.

If there isn't one, is it possible to cut one in?

If there is one, also check for a leak from the drain.

first i would isolate the shower feeds.
then find out where it's leaking from is it a pipe in the wall or is it when you use the shower and going behind the tiles.

if it's damaged the tiles you'll have to remove them to let the wall dry out and then reinstall them.

is it a plasterboard wall ?
