Calendar Girls the play, presented by Stowmarket Operatic and Dramatic Society (SODS)

When Annie's husband John dies of leukaemia, she and best friend Chris resolve to raise money for a new settee in the local hospital waiting room. They manage to persuade four fellow WI members to pose nude with them for an 'alternative calendar', with a little help from hospital porter and amateur photographer Lawrence. The news of the women's charitable venture spreads like wildfire, and hordes of press soon descend on the small village of Knapeley in the Yorkshire Dales. The calendar is a success, but Chris and Annie's friendship is put to the test under the strain of their new-found fame.

Based on a true story of eleven WI members who posed nude for a calendar to raise money for a Leukaemia Research Fund, Calendar Girls opened at Chichester Festival Theatre and has since become the fastest-selling play in British theatre history.
