The death of a much-loved husband prompts a small Yorkshire Women's Institute to do an extraordinary thing. 

Blasting away all preconceptions, they decide to do an artistic nude calendar to raise money for charity, but none of them expects the emotional and personal ramifications. Gradually, the making of the fabulous and funny calendar brings each woman unexpectedly into flower.

The story of the Calendar Girls launched a global phenomenon: a million copycats, a record-breaking movie, a stage play, and now a musical written by Gary Barlow and Tim Firth, which coined the term 'craughing' - the act of crying and laughing at the same time!

With unforgettable songs, every performance continues to add to the millions already raised for charity and proves that there is no such thing as an ordinary woman.
