Le Mars Community Theatre
Presents
room. They manage to persuade four fellow WI 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 new-found fame. Based on the true story of
eleven WI members who posed nude for a calendar to raise money for
the Leukemia Research Fund, Calendar Girls opened at the Chichester
Festival Theatre and has since become the fastest selling play in British
theatre history.
