MENOPAUSE THE MUSICAL Coming to Southern Theatre, Now thru 4/27

The international hit show Menopause The Musical has identified Columbus as a "hot" national market and will play the Southern Theatre for 6 performances from tonight, April 24-27.

Set in a department store, four women with seemingly nothing in common meet by chance at a lingerie sale, but a sisterhood is soon created between these diverse women as they realize that menopause is no longer "The Silent Passage." The all-female cast makes fun of their woeful hot flashes, forgetfulness, mood swings, wrinkles, night sweats, and chocolate binges in this laughter-filled, 90-minute musical parody set to classic tunes from the '60s, '70s and '80s.

CAPA presents the Menopause The Musical at the Southern Theatre (21 E. Main St.) April 24-27. The performance schedule is as follows:

Thursday, April 24, 8pm

Friday, April 25, 8pm

Saturday, April 26, 2pm & 8pm

Sunday, April 27, 2pm & 5:30pm

Tickets are $48-$68 at the CAPA Ticket Center (39 E. State St.), all Ticketmaster outlets, and www.ticketmaster.com. To purchase tickets by phone, please call (614) 469-0939 or (800) 745-3000.
