CALENDAR GIRLS THE MUSICAL
Event description
"CALENDAR GIRLS THE MUSICAL" by Gary Barlow and Tim Firth has its 1st Australian outing at Grafton's Criterion Theatre by arrangement with ORIGIN TM Theatrical.
The musical, based on the film" "CALENDAR GIRLS" by Tim Firth and Juliette Towhidi, tells the story of a group of rural women in England who raise funds for cancer by doing a nude calendar, with extraordinary results.
The Criterion production (rated PG), directed by Mark Conaghan and Angela Clarke with Musical Director Jenny Worrell, is a cheeky, heart-warming story filled with gorgeous songs that captures the spirit of community.
OPENING NIGHT - Wednesday August 7th - will be a fund-raiser for Grafton Base Hospital Oncology Unit.
“Calendar Girls The Musical” is a coup for Grafton, as the Criterion production will mark the Australian premiere of this show following successful seasons on London's West End. Kate Joseph, who will appear in the show, was instrumental in securing this opportunity for our local community of stellar performers. It will see her team up once more with Mark Conaghan following their previous local collaborations on other contemporary musicals “If/Then” and “Next to Normal".
