a funny & uplifting story about the power of friendship
Friends from the West Yorkshire Women’s Institute pose for a charity calendar with a difference… The goal is to raise enough money to buy a settee for the Leukaemia ward of the local hospital in memory of one of the members’ late husbands. In order to beat the modest eighty pounds raised from the previous year’s unimaginative calendar (“Bridges of the County”), the women decide to bare all! The response is more than they bargained for and what follows is hilarious, moving… and revealing!
Based on the award-winning 2003 movie starring Helen Mirren and Julie Walters, the play (like the movie) has been an international hit, including sell-out seasons on London’s West End.
Director Belinda Clark says this group of characters from the north of England have inspired people all around the world and in doing so, have raised awareness of the disease leukaemia.
“Much like the original women they play, our cast has come together with great community spirit and brought to life a story that truly shows one person can make a difference in the world.
“This is a play that will please all audiences!”
ETC’s production of Calendar Girls stars Annabel Cotton, Prudence Robinson, Christine Firkin, Carol Keeble, Wendy Morton, Melanie Robinson, Donna Sizer, Sandy Velini, Linda Young, Tim Bate, Nick Bolton and Mark O’Connor. Sound design by George Cartledge.
Special note: In the spirit of the play, Epicentre Theatre Company will be producing a 2014 calendar, featuring the amazing cast and products from select businesses. Each business will be
acknowledged in a month of the year. All money raised from the calendar and $2 from every ticket
sale will be donated to the Arrow Bone Marrow Transplant Foundation, Sydney to foster research
into a cure for leukaemia and support and assist patients and their families.
