About the Show:
Calendar Girls by Tim Firth is a play based on the Miramax motion picture by Juliette Towhidi and Tim Firth. A Comedy about about a group of ladies that create a very special calendar to raise money for a good cause and their trials and tribulations along the way.
Cast Information:
9-10* women and 4 men.
All the ladies range from 30-70+ with the exception of Elaine (20’s). Men range 20-60+
Men
Ron: (married to Chris) 50’s, hard working, devoted, and patient but has a breaking point.
John: (married to Annie) 50’s, succumbs to Leukemia, known for his love of Sunflowers, everyone’s friend, and always positive.
Liam: 20-50's, TV director, wants to be doing feature films, not commercials, but hey, it pays the rent.
Lawrence: 20-50's, the photographer. Sweet, though a bit nervous with the ladies. Always the artist. He composes his shoots with care and skill.
Women
Chris: 50's, married to Ron. They run a florist shop. She is outgoing, leader, stirs the girls up in a good way, can go too far though.
Annie: 50's, married to John. She is best friends with Chris. A bit more conservative but still enjoys a good laugh, often tries to soften the antics of a more acidic Chris. These two are like Thelma and Louise.
Cora: 35-50, church organist, single mom, vicar’s daughter, just gave up smoking.
Celia: 35-50, trophy wife, golfer, and drinks a bit too much.
Jessie: 60's, retired school teacher with the attention to detail to prove it. Married. A quick wit, brave and not shy about sharing her opinion.
Ruth: 40's, married, lacks confidence and self esteem in the first part of our story, but re-invents herself through out the play, Marie’s right hand lady.
Marie: 50’s, chairman of the Knapeley WI. Her barking of commands hides a wounded ego. Secretly wants to be just one of the girls.
*Brenda Hulse: 50's, judge of the WI autumn festival. She delivers regular lectures to the ladies at their meetings on a variety of subjects. Among her most riveting lectures: the fascinating history of the tea towel along with everything you ever wanted to know about broccoli.
*Lady Cravenshire: 50's, one of the grand matrons of the WI. She doesn’t mean to be patronizing, but living so high up in a tower on her grand estate(s), makes all the other folk look so very small.
Elaine: 20's, beautician. Elaine doesn’t mean to be patronizing, but...well...she’s Elaine and no one else is, so there you have it.
* In some versions, Brenda Hulse and Lady Cravenshire are played by the same actress.
Director: Dori Persson
Producers: Annete Lenge and Bunny Giordano
