Three harried New York performance artist in a musical conversation about the second half of life.

In this original musical cabaret, three New York performing artists examine their fulfilled and unfulfilled dreams, with reflections on the universal ups and downs of hitting middle age. One, a recovering New Age folk-singer with a long list of unfinished projects has a bad case of "Who am I?"; the second, a type-A composer-lyricist, teacher, and wanna-be farmer, is tripping over "Is that all there is?"; and the other, a multi-tasking Broadway actress with a 13-year old daughter is hollering "I'm dancing as fast I can!". Older, bolder, wiser, stronger than ever, they're remembering where they've been and pondering ..."What now?" This must be midlfe.
