The McLean Community Players are
presenting the area premiere of Tim Furth’s “Calendar Girls,” at McLean’s Alden Theatre. Based on a true story,
it is set in a small English village where a number of middle-aged ladies
belong to a club call the Women’s Institute. After the husband of one of the
members dies, they decide to raise money for the hospital in his name by
selling a calendar. Sounds innocent enough until we discover the calendar will
have pictures of the ladies, sort of in the buff. When word gets out, they are
deluged by reporters. Lots of fun with a great ensemble cast. “Calendar Girls” is directed by Bob
Sams who directed MCP’s production of “The Games Afoot” last season. The show
runs on weekends through Oct. 3. For more information and tickets, check the
