Last days in the Calendar
10:00, 13 February 2012
The final tour of Calendar Girls stops in Kent venues before it hangs up its dressing gown. The show tells the true story of the WI ladies who made a nude calendar to raise money in memory of a friend.
After being made into a film starring Helen Mirren and Julie Walters, the story was turned into a West End show and became the fastest-selling tour ever.
The final line-up stars Lynda Bellingham, Camilla Dallerup, Jan Harvey, Sue Holderness, Deena Payne, June Watson and Ruth Madoc, with Kevin Sacre and Joe McGann.
