Kingston Bagpuize Drama Group presents Calendar Girls by Tim Firth, 28-30 November, Southmoor Village Hall
Kingston Bagpuize Drama Group presents Calendar Girls, based on the Miramax motion picture by Juliette Towhidi and Tim Firth.
When Annie's husband John dies of leukaemia, she and her best friend Chris resolve to raise money for a new settee in the local hospital waiting room. With varying levels of encouragement, they persuade four friends and fellow members of the Women’s Institute (W.I.) to pose nude with them for an "alternative" calendar. Tim Firth’s hilarious play is based on the true story of eleven W.I. members who famously posed nude for a calendar to raise money for the Leukaemia Research Fund in 1999.
