Cast announced for the British comedy Calendar Girls!

Thank you to all who auditioned for the British comedy Calendar Girls! Congratulations to the cast selected!

The play Calendar Girls written by Tim Firth: When Annie’s husband John dies of leukemia, she and best friend Chris resolve to raise money for a new settee in the local hospital waiting room. They manage to persuade four fellow Women’s Institute members to pose with them for an “alternative” calendar, with a little help from hospital porter and amateur photographer Lawrence.

The news of the women’s charitable venture spreads like wildfire, and hordes of press soon descend on the small village of Knapeley in the Yorkshire Dales. The calendar is a success, but Chris and Annie’s friendship is put to the test under the strain of their newfound fame. Based on the true story of eleven older women who posed nude (no nudity is in this production) for a calendar to raise money for the Leukemia Research Fund, Calendar Girls opened at the Chichester Festival Theatre and has since become the fastest-selling play in British theatre history.

Fauquier Community Theatre’s production of Calendar Girls is directed by Scott Olson and produced by Maggie Swan. Calendar Girls is by special arrangement with Concord Theatricals.
