Time to say goodbye to an old friend
This is an uplifting story, even though it points to the end of
a double life and a loving relationship. You already know
it's Friday the 13th but you may not know it's Dead Bra Day -- the
day women are to go to their lingerie
drawer and ditch all their old, dead bras. [The
Hamilton Spectator]

Media Release
There is a group of Canadian women for whom Dead Bra Day is more
than a date on a calendar. This dynamic group of women
known as the Canadian Association of Professional Bra-makers
have dedicated themselves
to give women back their womanhood by having available
to them custom made bras that are beautiful, sexy and
supportive. Best of all, they
fit! [story] |

Calendar Girls, the film true to real
experience
Part way through the feel good flick "Calendar
Girls", I had the urge to stand up in the new Galaxy
Theatre and invite the mostly female audience to be calendar
girls in the Guelph- based, 2005 Breast of Canada Calendar.

Courage to Be Me
By Marly ( BoC Ms. October 2004)
Click, click. Click, click, click. That was the sound of the camera,
almost a year ago, recording the sadness, empathy, hope,
and joy in my eyes in with the broader shots of the two
mastectomy scars
misaligned across my chest. I had wanted a private photojournal,
a kind of personal tribute, to the history these scars
represented because, after being almost 3 years without
my left breast and one
and a half without the other, I was finally about to
undertake a transformation through breast reconstruction.

Breast of Canada Calendar
The Guelph Youth Music Centre Theatre held not only the
calendar launching but a one-act play also about breasts
called “the
Strong Breast Revolution.” These two breast-centred events
brought our floppy friends to the limelight, while they
are usually kept hidden beneath layers and constricted
by social taboos. [story]

Play launches calendar for Breast of Canada
There is nothing quite comparable to the experience of sitting
behind an entire rowing team of breast cancer survivors,
(led by coach Pat
Richards, of the University of Guelph's Athletic Centre),
watching a play called The Strong Breast Revolution. [Guelph

Stunning triumph in Guelph!
The play referred to on the TERA website (www.tera.ca)
(September 15) was premiered tonight in Guelph, Ontario,
to a standing ovation. And so deserved it was! The
Strong Breast Revolution, directed by Vicki Hambley
and co-written by her and the actors, is the kind of
artistic creation TERA has been looking for throughout
its existence.

Play aims to reach above stereotypes;
One-act drama Strong Breast Revolution based on experiences
of its four actors
There are small ones, big ones, saggy ones, perky
ones, floppy ones, soft ones, hard ones and even leaky
ones. And that's the message Vicki Hambley wants to
get out. [Mercury]

Take Back the Breast

After a dramatic surge in interest and sales last year, a controversial calendar
aimed at raising awareness about breast health is getting ready for a return engagement this
September.
The third annual Breast of Canada calendar will be launched during
a nine-show run of the production "The Strong Breast Revolution," an
original one-act play written and performed by five University
of Guelph students.

are any indication, 2004 will be a very good year for Guelph's Sue
Richards. [Guelph Mercury] |
