Menopause the Musical

The smaller portion and I went to the theatre last night to see Menopause The Musical.

I loved it. The lyrics were clever and the voices glorious.  Some of the songs that were parodied included Chain of Fools, the Lion Sleeps Tonight, The Great Pretender and California Girls.  I smiled, snickered, laughed, winced a couple of times and had to wipe sweaty eyeballs ditto.  And I don't think I could ask for much more from a show. 

Smaller portion (understandably) was not in love - but liked it too.

About the only negative is that they didn't have the CD at the theatre.  So I will go online and buy it shortly - all profits from the merchandise go to the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation.

PS:  I won't be ordering the CD after all.  I went on line, CD costs $20.  Proceed to checkout.  Postage and handling $102.25.

    I have heard that it is definitely an older woman's specialty, and if it comes anywhere near me, I'll go! Glad you had so much fun at it!

    $102.25?????
    That can't be right.
    Maybe it's a typo?
    I wanted to go and see it, but sadly, time got away from me.

    Ha, Menopause the Musical. Had to be funny. Menopause is funny in itself. Sometimes.

    How the crack can shipping and handling be $80.00+?! Too bad for those guys. :/

    glad you had a good night out! bah, silliest thing, the postage and handling from the us (i'm wildly guessing your order would have coem from there?) are often mindbogglingly silly, a) they for some reason charge for packaging and not only postal fees. the packaging bit should of course be included in the price already. b) they are clueless of a world outside the us, as they often seem to have "free postage inside usa". and why not put a slightky higher price on the merchandise instead, people are often willing to pay that, rarely such ridiculous postage and handling fees for such cheap-to-send-goods.
