CALENDAR GIRLS Cast Album Now Available for Pre-Order

Calendar Girls' writer Gary Barlow took to Twitter today to announce that the new musical's cast album is now available for pre-order.

The album can be preordered on Amazon here, or from the official store here.

Gary Barlow and Tim Firth's award-winning musical comedy THE GIRLS is now at The Phoenix Theatre in London's glittering West End having received fantastic 5 star reviews! Audiences are saying "I've laughed at musicals, I've cried at musicals, but I've never cried and laughed at the same time."

THE GIRLS is the true story of Yorkshire's own CALENDAR GIRLS - a group of ordinary ladies who achieved something extraordinary.

THE GIRLS is now playing at the Phoenix until 15 July 2017 with an additional Tuesday matinee from 25 April.

The story of the Calendar Girls began in 1998 when John Baker, husband of Angela Baker, was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, a type of blood cancer. John sadly passed away after just a few months of treatment, but in the months following their loss, Angela and her friends set about creating the now infamous calendar as something for Angela to focus on and, also, to prove John wrong - he said they'd never do it!

Through the sale of calendars, the group aimed to raise enough to buy a new sofa for the hospital where John was treated and were amazed when the calendar attracted international press attention. So far, they've raised millions for Bloodwise (formerly Lymphoma & Lymphoma Research), the blood cancer charity they have been long associated with.
