TWN's Calendar Girls

Set in a small Yorkshire village and based on a true story, Calendar Girls follows middle-aged friends Annie and Chris. When Annie’s husband is struck by leukemia, Chris persuades their Women’s Institute to raise money for the hospital waiting room by producing a nude calendar of WI members—tastefully done, as well as hilariously and courageously. As the calendar takes off, the women confront friendship, grief, identity, and community. What begins as a local fundraising idea becomes a larger-than-expected movement of hope, humor, and empowerment. Laughs, tears, sisterhood and a bit of daring combine in this warm and witty story of ordinary women doing something extraordinary. ? “This heart-warming and hilarious play … destined to make you laugh, make you cry and make you blush! … a glorious celebration of friendship, community, and the power of ordinary people to make a difference.”-londontheatre1.com
