When this was sent to me, I thought it was quite comical as obviously women do go through the change {Menopause} at one point in their life. Why not make a musical about it? LOL!
That’s right, there is a national tour of Menopause the Musical®, and they will be performing in Port Huron! Even though I am not in that phase of life just yet, I thought I would still share this with those who can relate and could use a good laugh. Here is a brief run down:
GFour Productions, winners of 54 Drama Desk and 44 Tony Awards are proudly bringing the international hit show Menopause The Musical® to Port Huron and will McMorran Place on April 5th for one performance. Menopause The Musical® is a groundbreaking celebration of women who are on the brink of, in the middle of, or have survived “The Change.” Tickets are currently on sale, and can be purchased at the box office, www.ticketmaster.com or by calling 800-745-3000. Group discounts for 10+ are also available by calling 888-686-8587 x5.
“From its first performance, Menopause The Musical® has evolved as a “grassroots” movement of women who deal with life adjustments after 40 and all the challenges that result in the mental, physical and spiritual freedom of the post-World War II baby boomer generation. The all-female cast makes fun of their woeful hot flashes, forgetfulness, mood swings, wrinkles, night sweats and chocolate binges. A sisterhood is created between these diverse women as they realize that menopause is no longer “The Silent Passage.” It is a stage in every woman’s life that is perfectly normal. Menopause The Musical® is produced by GFour Productions. The laughter-filled 90-minute production includes parodies from classic pop songs of the ‘60s and ‘70s and ‘80s. It is estimated that nearly 11 million women have attended a performance since the 2001 opening in Orlando, Florida. Menopause The Musical® recently celebrated its 3,000th performance and was named the longest-running scripted production in Las Vegas. The hilarious musical has entertained audiences across the country in more than 450 U.S. cities, nearly 300 international cities and a total of 15 countries.
