KINGSLEY Players’ production of Calendar Girls has proved so popular at the box office the group has decided to add an extra performance into the schedule.

Tuesday, May 14, at 7.30pm, will now see the players on stage performing the internationally-renowned play by Frodsham playwright Tim Firth, in addition to the planned four-night run from May 15-18.

The popular show and supper nights on Friday and Saturday sold out almost immediately and there are now only a few tickets left for Wednesday.

Calendar Girls director Malcolm Barker said: “The response has been absolutely amazing. The show has only been released for 18 months to amateur dramatic societies in a bid to create a new performance world record, and several local groups have already performed the play.

“We wondered whether there would still be people out there wanting to see the show – but thankfully we needn’t have worried. We have a strong, talented cast and rehearsals are going really well. It promises to be a cracking show.

“Hopefully by staging an extra performance, it will give people who haven’t booked yet a chance to see the play.”
