Calendar Girls
Tim Firth’s funny, sentimental and captivating comedy
When Annie’s husband is diagnosed with leukaemia, she and her best friend resolve to raise money for a new settee in the local hospital waiting room. They persuade their fellow WI members to pose nude with them for an “alternative” calendar, and soon, news of the women’s charitable venture spreads like wildfire. Hordes of press descend on the small Yorkshire Dale village and, before long, the ladies find themselves a world-wide phenomenon. Based on the film of the same name, Calendar Girls was the winner of the What’s On Stage Award for Best New Comedy in 2010.
