The original girls made an extra special appearance at the shows opening night
Celebrating 25 years since the creation of the original calendar and 20 years since the record-breaking movie ’s release, Calendar Girls the Musical returns to The Grand for the third time after it premiered here in 2015, followed by a revival in 2018.
The true story of the Calendar Girls launched a global phenomenon that is celebrating 20 years since its release. Tim Firth, co-writer of the show, says: “Pre-pandemic I had been preparing the musical for a foreign production which was of course then postponed. When the skies cleared and a new production in the UK was proposed I looked back and thought, ‘This is the version we ought to stage’.
Gary Barlow, co-writer of the show, added: "I am delighted to be working on this new production of Calendar Girls and getting ready for the joy, the laughter, and the nostalgia to take the stage again. It’s been 20 years this year since the film was released, and around 10 years since I first saw Tim’s play with my mum Marjorie.
