Based on the British comedy by the same name, Calendar Girls won rave reviews in London, and is now at the Royal Alexandra Theatre in Toronto! The twelve ladies of a chapter of the Women’s Institute take on a charity fundraiser to support Leukemia research, but with a twist. Instead of the typical Women’s Institute calendar, the ladies drop their drawers for the creation of a calendar featuring pictures of the members discreetly posing nude while engaged in activities such as baking and knitting.

Catch Calendar Girls today at 2pm and 8pm. Tickets for matinee performances range from $30 to $76; tickets for evening performances range from $45 to $84. If you can’t make it to the show today, performances continue until May 28th. Purchase tickets at mirvish.com.
