The show’s box offices gross recently hit a combined total of 21 million pounds across the country.
It has now surpassed the box office takings of the hugely successful 2003 ‘Calendar Girls’ film, which starred Helen Mirren and Julie Walters, and is the most successful play ever to tour the UK.
Lineker will play Elaine in the show, and will be joined by Loose Woman Lynda Bellingham, Liverpudlian Jennifer Ellison, Bernie Nolan and Lisa Riley amongst others.
Tim Firth’s adaptation of ‘Calendar Girls’ tells the real-life story of the members of a Yorkshire chapter of the Women’s Institute who decide to pose nude for a charity calendar.
The show’s producers have also hinted that 2011 will potentially be the production’s final tour.
