Best friends Chris and Annie are determined to raise money for the cancer wing of the local hospital. But they can’t get excited about another Women’s Institute calendar of bucolic country scenes, until Chris hits upon the idea of featuring the ladies doing typical Women’s Institute endeavors – gardening, canning, baking, knitting – while nude. The calendar is wildly successful, but their friendship is put to the test as news of their venture spreads beyond their little town.]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<img class="aligncenter wp-image-11586" src="https://winchesterlittletheatre.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Calendar-Girl-Poster-Proof-2-791x1024.png" alt="" width="618" height="800">

A vicarage becomes a hub of delightful confusion as two vicars plus an elderly Bishop lead to mistaken identities. The disorder is heightened by a spiteful spinster, an ex-actress (now the vicar's wife), a young American soldier (her former leading man), and a Russian spy. Together, the characters create a tapestry of comedic moments, misunderstandings, and intrigue, making the vicarage the perfect setting for a classic British farce.]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<img class="aligncenter wp-image-11545 size-full" src="https://winchesterlittletheatre.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/SHTR-audition-poster.png" alt="" width="650" height="841">
