Menopause: The Musical

"Menopause: The Musical" is consistently a lot of fun and very entertaining. This musical has taken very well-known songs and replaced the original lyrics with new subjects of interest to older women. Therefore, “Staying Alive” becomes “Staying Awake” to describe insomnia. “Chain of Fools” becomes “Change of Life” and so on. Some of these lyrics are so funny, I had tears rolling down my face the first time I saw this show because I was laughing so hard! This performance at the Long Center is as successful as past performances I’ve seen. It is made up of energetic actresses with marvelous singing voices, and fun choreography. As always, women in the audience are invited to come up and dance onstage at the end. Although there are not typically many men in attendance at this show, those who do brave the subject matter end up laughing and clapping even louder than the women, at times! That is to say, there is nothing offensive to men. So come on out and celebrate the change of life!
