Menopause The Musical
Inspired by a hot flash and a bottle of wine, Menopause the Musical was created as a celebration of women who are on the brink of, in the middle of, or have emerged as a survivor of 'The Change'. Since its first performance, the show has evolved as a "grassroots" movement of women who deal with life after 40 and all the challenges that result in the mental, physical and spiritual freedom of more than 38 million post WWII baby boomer females.
The 90-minute joyride centers around four women at a Bloomingdale's lingerie sale with nothing in common but a black lace bra and hot flashes, night sweats, memory loss, chocolate binges, not enough sex, too much sex, and more. It's a joyful parody of 25 re-lyricized classic baby boomer hits, featuring such chart-toppers as "I Heard It Thru the Grapevine; You No Longer See 39," and the disco favorite "Stayin' Awake! Stayin' Awake!"
If this summary of the show gives you a chuckle, Menopause The Musical a sure bet for fun.
