Calendar Girls The Musical

About Calendar Girls The Musical

A CALENDAR THAT CHANGED EVERYTHING

The death of a much loved husband prompts a group of ordinary women in a small Yorkshire Women's Institute to do something extraordinary: create a nude calendar to raise money for charity. News spreads fast in their community and none of them expect the emotional and personal repercussions, but gradually the making of the fabulous and funny calendar brings each woman unexpectedly into bloom.

Packed full of unforgettable songs, every performance continues to prove that there is no such thing as an ordinary woman

Presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. Originally
Produced by David Pugh & Dafydd Rogers and The Shubert Organisation.
Based on the play CALENDAR GIRLS written by Tim Firth and on the
motion picture CALENDAR GIRLS. Written by Tim Firth and Juliette Towhidi.
