Calendar Girls

November 1 @ 8:00 pm - 10:00 pm EDT

By Tim Firth

Based on the Miramax motion picture by Juliette Towhidi and Tim Firth

Directed by Terry Sagedy

When Annie’s husband John dies of leukemia, she and best friend Chris resolve to raise money for a new settee in the local hospital waiting room. They manage to persuade four fellow Women’s Institute members to pose nude with them for an “alternative” calendar, with a little help from hospital porter and amateur photographer Lawrence. The news of the women’s charitable venture spreads like wildfire, and hordes of press soon descend on the small village of Knapeley in the Yorkshire Dales. The calendar is a success, but Chris and Annie’s friendship is put to the test under the strain of their newfound fame.

Shows are Nov. 1 – 16 on Friday and Saturday at 8 PM and Sunday at 2PM. There will be a free preview for area senior citizens on Thursday, Nov. 7 at 8 PM.
