Menopause the Musical @ CPAC
Date: Wednesday 17-Mar-10 at 8:00 pm
Category: Performances
By special arrangement with the author Jeanie Lander.
Inspired by a hot flush and a bottle of wine, author Jeanie Lander brings to the stage a celebration of women who are on the brink of, in the midst of or who just plain survived - the change! Set in a department store, four women with seemingly nothing common, but a black lace bra, meet by chance at a lingerie sale. They quickly bond and a sisterhood is created as they make fun of their woeful hot flushes, forgetfulness, mood swings, night sweats and chocolate binges.
