SUMMARY:Teylu Theatre presents Calendar Girls
DESCRIPTION:Based on a true story and adapted from the hit film\, Calendar Girls follows a group of Yorkshire Women’s Institute members who\, after the death of a friend’s husband from leukaemia\, decide to raise money for charity in an unconventional way: by producing a ‘nude’ calendar. With only strategically placed props to preserve their modesty\, the women challenge expectations\, spark a media frenzy\, and discover unexpected strength in themselves and each other.  It’s laugh-out-loud funny\, yet deeply moving\, offering audiences a feel-good experience that leaves them uplifted and inspired. Due to the nature of the plot there is some non-sexual nudity (hopefully not too much!) and some moderate swearing\, Parental Guidance for under 16s. \nWe are proud to present Calendar Girls in 2026. The production holds special significance for our team; so many of our members have been personally affected by the various themes explored in the play: cancer; loss; enstrangement; ageism.  And\, just Just like the ladies of Knapley WI\, it was the  camaraderie\, support and laughter of friends that saw us through.\n\nTeylu is delighted to have partnered with the Plymouth Radiotherapy Development Fund for this production\, raising money to enhance patient care.
