| Menopause
the Musical |
|
The
flash is back! Jeanie Linder’s Menopause the Musical
is comedy that celebrates women and “the change” in
90 neat minutes. In a department store, four women
with seemingly nothing in common (but a black lace
bra) meet by chance, and end up poking fun at more
than just hot flashes. Menopause features comic
songs like “Puff, My God I’m Draggin,” with more than
20 other reworked tunes from the ’60s and ’70s. Since
March 2001, Menopause the Musical has entertained
audiences and inspired women across the country in
more than 150 U.S. cities as well as 12 countries
internationally.
This is one for all the red hot mamas.
The performances begin at the Capital Repertory Theatre
(111 N. Pearl St., Albany) on Wednesday (July 9) at
7:30 PM and run until Aug. 31. Tickets $41-$46. For
a detailed schedule of show dates and times, or to
order tickets, call 445-7469.
