Calendar Girls Saturday Matinee Theatre Party January 12 at 2 pm Old Academy Players 3544 Indian Queen Lane When Annie’s husband, John, dies of leukemia, she and best friend Chris resolve to raise money for a new settee for the local hospital. They manage to persuade fellow Women’s Club members to pose nude with them for an “alternative” calendar. News of the calendar spreads like wildfire, and hordes of press soon descend on their small English village. This hilarious play is based on the true story of eleven women. It became the fastest selling play in British history and a 2003 movie starting Helen Mirren.
The East Falls Village Theatre Party is a fundraiser for the EFV Assisted Membership Fund – we are doing a Theatre Party instead of an “alternative calendar.” Please bring a guest. Non-members are welcome.
