What began with 76 women in an Orlando perfume shop-turned-theater laughing, kicklining, and celebrating menopause for the first time became a global movement. The musical shattered the stigma around menopause and turned a once-taboo topic into a badge of honor.<\/p>\n<p>Set in a department store, four women meet while shopping for a black lace bra at a lingerie sale. After noticing similarities among one another, the ladies joke about their woeful hot flashes, mood swings, wrinkles, weight gain, and much more. These women form a sisterhood and a unique bond with the entire audience as they rejoice in celebrating that menopause is no longer \u201cThe Silent Passage.\u201d It&#8217;s the Hilarious Celebration of Women and The Change!<\/p>\n<p>Inspired by a hot flash and a bottle of wine, playwright <a target=\"newwinddow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.broadwayworld.com\/people\/Jeanie-Linders\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Jeanie Linders<\/a> created Menopause the Musical to celebrate women at every stage of &#8220;The Change.&#8221; The laughter-filled 90-minute production gets audience members out of their seats and singing along to parodies from classic pop songs of the \u201860s, \u201870s and \u201880s.<\/p>\n<p>The original Menopause The Musical debuted in Orlando, Florida, and ran Off-Broadway for four years, performing for more than 1,500 audiences, followed by a U.S. national tour that is still running today. In 2007, it opened internationally in the United Kingdom and has performed in countries including Australia, South Korea, Brazil, France, Slovenia, and many more. It is also the longest-running musical in Las Vegas history, performing nightly at Harrah&#8217;s Hotel and Casino on the Las Vegas Strip. Beloved for 25 years and seen by more than 17 million, Menopause The Musical has played every state in the continental U.S., more than 500 cities worldwide, and has been translated into nine languages.<\/p>\n<p>The production&#8217;s Book and Lyrics are by <a target=\"newwinddow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.broadwayworld.com\/people\/Jeanie-Linders\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Jeanie Linders<\/a>.
