TOPS are going to need considerably bigger buns this spring for their hilarious and beautifully moving production of CALENDAR GIRLS THE MUSICAL! 

The death of a much-loved husband prompts a group of ordinary women in a small Yorkshire town Women's Institute to do an extraordinary thing. Blasting away all preconceptions of what it is to be in the WI, they decide to make an artistic nude calendar to raise money for charity. Upturning preconceptions is a dangerous business and none of them expect the emotional and personal ramifications that follow but, gradually, the making of the fabulous and funny calendar causes each of the women to unexpectedly blossom. 

The true story of the Calendar Girls launched a global phenomenon, a million copycat calendars, a record breaking movie, a stage play and a musical written by Tim Firth and Gary Barlow.

This performance runs for 120 including a 20 minute interval.

We recommend this show to be for age 13+ as may be slight nudity and adult language.
