Looking for an event to share with friends which is relatable, interesting, and most importantly, funny as hell? Check out Menopause The Musical®! Set in a department store lingerie sale, the show centers around four women with seemingly not much in common (except for one item they all want) until stories emerge which bond the all-female cast. Laughter abounds through pokes at hot flashes, forgetfulness, mood swings, sexual predicaments, chocolate binges, and more.

The longest-running scripted musical in Las Vegas history, nearly 15 million people in more than 500 cities worldwide have attended performances. Menopause The Musical® is a work by American composer Jeanie Linders which premiered on March 28, 2001, in Orlando, Florida. It has been performed all over North America, as well as Australia, Brazil, Canada, Hungary, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Philippines, Slovenia, Spain, South Africa, South Korea, and the United Kingdom. Best of all, local references in the show are customized to the location of the performance.
