(Lincoln City, Oregon) – Things are starting to go bump in the night on the central Oregon coast. They're actually starting to shake, rattle and roll as well, if you count the food and live music fun.

A series of awesome events fill the roster in Lincoln City for the next month. Take a look at some of the highlights.

Throughout October and November: In collaboration with “Relay for Life,” Theatre West presents Calendar Girls, a comedy by Tim Firth. The play is based on the Miramax motion picture by Juliette Towhidi and Tim Firth. The director is Stina Seeger-Gibson. During the Season of Simon run she appeared in Jake’s Women, and the female version of The Odd Couple and directed The Sunshine Boys.

When Annie's husband John dies of leukemia, she and best friend Chris resolve to raise money for a new settee in the local hospital waiting room. They manage to persuade four fellow WI members to pose nude with them for an "alternative" calendar, with a little help from hospital porter and amateur photographer Lawrence. The news of the women's charitable venture spreads like wildfire, and hordes of press soon descend on the small village of Knapeley in the Yorkshire Dales. The calendar is a success, but Chris and Annie's friendship is put to the test under the strain of their new-found fame. Calendar Girls is based on the true story of eleven WI members who posed nude for a calendar to raise money for the Leukemia Research Fund.

The play will run from October 19 through November 9, 2017. It will be presented at the Lincoln City Cultural Center, 540 NE Hwy 101, on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings at 7:30 P.M.
