It is time to kick up those high heels! The international hit show Menopause The Musical is coming to the Long Beach Center Theater August 3rd through 8th with seven shows scheduled. The show is written and produced by Jeanie Linders.
Set in a department store, four women with seemingly nothing in common but a black lace bra meet by chance at a lingerie sale. The all female cast makes fun of their 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 a stage in every woman’s life that is perfectly normal.
Menopause The Musical Show Times:
- Tuesday, August 3 @ 8pm
- Wednesday, August 4 @ 8pm
- Thursday, August 5 @ 8pm
- Friday, August 6 @ 8pm
- Saturday, August 7 @ 2pm & 8pm
- Sunday, August 8 @ 2pm
It is estimated that nearly 11 million women have attended a performance of Menopause The Musical since the show’s 2001 premier. Inspired by a hot flash and a bottle of wine, Jeanie Linders created the show as a celebration of women who are on the brink of, in the middle of, or have survived “The Change.”
