Calendar Girls the musical

About

When tragedy strikes, courage blossoms.

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.

The true story of the Calendar Girls launched a global phenomenon, a million copycat calendars, a record-breaking movie, a West End play and now an awarding-winning musical written by Gary Barlow and Tim Firth.

At Theatre by the Lake in Keswick and packed full of unforgettable songs, every performance continues to prove that there is no such thing as an ordinary woman.

This production is part of the Made by TBTL programme, celebrating theatre created and co-produced by Theatre by the Lake in Keswick. Looking for more things to do in Keswick? Don't miss our witty Restoration comedy Nell Gwynn and the festive classic A Christmas Carol.
