BWW Preview: The Hilarious MENOPAUSE THE MUSICAL is Coming to San Bernardino for One Performance

MENOPAUSE THE MUSICAL® is a hoot. I've seen it twice, with different casts. Now, this celebration of sisterhood is coming to San Bernardino's California Theatre of the Performing Arts, for one show only, on Saturday, September 29th, at 2 p.m.

The story line, such as it is, involves four middle-aged women who bond after engaging in an underwear-throwing fight over the right to a sexy bra they find on the clearance table at Bloomingdale's. The pant-suited professional woman (Anise Ritchie), the earth mother who never moved on from the 1960's (Melanie Souza), the prim and proper Iowa housewife (Terri Dixon), and the fashionable soap star (Debby Rosenthal) exchange life stories while lamenting their hot flashes, night sweats, and forgetfulness and supporting each other's hopes and desires. The audience members never learn the characters' names but, by the end of the one-act show, we feel as if these ladies are our new best friends as well as each others'.
