THE Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre Presents MENOPAUSE, THE MUSICAL, 3/27-5/12

The 40th Anniversary Season heats up in a flash when Menopause, The Musical makes its debut this spring at Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre. This hilarious and fun celebration of women and "the change" is live on stage March 27 through May 12.

Written by Jeanie Linders, Menopause, The Musical is set in a department store, where four women with seemingly nothing in common but a black lace bra meet by chance at a lingerie sale. The all-female cast makes fun of their woeful hot flashes, forgetfulness, mood swings, wrinkles, night sweats and chocolate binges. A sisterhood is created between these diverse women in this uplifting production includes parodies from the '60s and '70s and '80s. It culminates with a salute to women who are experiencing "the change."

Beef & Boards' production of Menopause The Musical features two Indianapolis residents: Judy Bridgewater and Tiffanie Bridges. Bridgewater is a native Hoosier who owned the Young Artists Studio of Performing Arts for more than 30 years and currently teaches private voice lessons at Lawrence Central High School. Bridges has lived in Indianapolis for 14 years and has performed in productions of Menopause, The Musical for eight years in nearly 40 cities.

Joining these ladies are Dee Etta Rowe (last seen at Beef & Boards in the 2008 production of
The Sound of Music) and Rebecca Fisher, who is making her Beef & Boards debut. There are 52 performances of Menopause, The Musical scheduled in the intimate setting of Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre.
