BWW Review: Uneven CALENDAR GIRLS at Granite Theatre

CALENDAR GIRLS is a charming story about some Yorkshire women who think outside the box in order to raise money to celebrate one of their late husbands.  The ladies of the Women's Institute sell a calendar every year as a fundraiser, but the calendar is usually pictures of local churches or similar.  This time, they decide to get a bit risque', but also run the risk of running afoul of the head of the national Women's Institute.  It's a charming play that is genuinely funny, and the cast of the Granite Theatre are clearly enthusiastic, unfortunately the production is marred by numerous technical elements that normally an audience doesn't even notice, but when they do, it creates something that's hard to watch.

Photo Flash: The Granite Theatre of Westerly presents CALENDAR GIRLS

The Granite Theatre of Westerly, announces the opening of Tim Firth's delightful comedy "Calendar Girls" is the true and "revealing story" of a women's group in England who decided to drop everything to raise money for a new settee for the hospital waiting room in honor of one's husband who died of leukemia.  The news of the "alternative calendar" charitable venture spread like wildfire and ultimately raised over a million dollars.  Alternately dazzlingly funny and shamelessly sentimental this delightful play tells the story of their journey.  The show opens Friday June 30, 2017 and runs Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 8pm and Sundays at 2pm through July 30, 2017.   Producer/ Artistic Director for the theatre is David Jepson.
