OPENING NIGHT -Wednesday August 7th, is a fund-raiser for the Grafton Base Hospital Oncology Unit.
“Calendar Girls The Musical “by Gary Barlow and Tim Firth is the award-winning production based on the true story of the calendar girls – a group of ordinary ladies who achieved something extraordinary.
“Calendar Girls The Musical” is a coup for Grafton, as the Criterion production will mark the Australian premiere of this show following successful seasons on London’s West End. Kate Joseph, who will appear in the show, was instrumental in securing this opportunity for our local community of stellar performers. It will see her team up once more with Mark Conaghan following their previous local collaborations on other contemporary musicals “If/Then” and “Next to Normal“. “Calendar Girls “ tells the story of a women’s community organisation who raise money for their local hospital by posing nude for their annual calendar. Directed by Mark Conaghan and Angela Clarke, the show is a heart-warming story filled with gorgeous songs.
