Calendar Girls – By Tim Firth
Directed by Louise and Paul Ward
Based on the beloved true story that inspired the hit film, Calendar Girls is a heartwarming and hilarious celebration of friendship, courage, and community spirit. When a group of ordinary women from the WI group in a small Yorkshire village decide to create a nude calendar to raise money for charity, their daring plan captures hearts and headlines alike.
This delightful comedy, adapted by Tim Firth, blends genuine laugh-out-loud moments with touching scenes of love, loss, and pure resilience as the women navigate personal doubts, community gossip, and unexpected fame. Through wit and warmth, Calendar Girls reminds us that sometimes the most extraordinary things happen when you step out of your comfort zone – and that true strength lies in standing together.
Whether you’re a fan of the film, a theatre lover, or new to the story, Calendar Girls promises a feel-good evening that’s impossible to forget – a tale about embracing life, no matter your age.
This is one calendar date you won’t want to miss, so come along for our season finale and celebrate community, courage, and the power of friendship – we promise an uplifting night filled with laughter, inspiration, and a few surprises along the way.
