Featuring parodies of classic pop songs from the '60s, '70s and '80s, the show follows four women at various stages of "the change" who come together in a department store while shopping for lingerie, and bond over their shared experiences. From hot flashes to mood swings, night sweats to memory loss, no topic is off-limits.

"Menopause, the Musical" playfully celebrates womanhood in all its messy, magnificent glory, tackling a sensitive subject with wit and warmth. In a culture where aging is sometimes viewed as something to be feared or hidden away, the musical celebrates the wisdom that comes with age.

"Menopause, the Musical" will resonate with audiences of all ages and backgrounds. It reminds us that despite our challenges, there's strength in solidarity, and beauty in embracing every chapter of our lives.
