Menopause the Musical Reviews

Menopause the Musical Returns to the Laguna Playhouse

After an extremely popular run in 2007, Laguna Playhouse is pleased to welcome back Menopause The Musical for a special run, September 1-27, 2009.

Menopause The Musical is set in a department store, where 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 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!

Since March 2001, the hilarious show has entertained and inspired women from coast-to-coast and internationally. This laughter-filled 90-minute production includes parodies from the classics of the ‘60s, ‘70s and ‘80s. Menopause The Musical has launched a women’s movement that has superseded entertainment and has become a must-see event!
