Hilarious!!!
Harrah's Cabaret at Harrah's Las Vegas - Las Vegas
My husband said his cheeks hurt from laughing for 90 minutes straight. The 4 women are so talented and the rewording of recognizable songs to fit the theme was really on spot. The theater was small so I doubt there was a bad seat in the house. We saw four shows while in Vegas and this was by far the best.

This show gave me a reason to laugh at my current situation. Also it justified everything I feel. I can not remember the last time I laughed so hard. I only wish my husband could have been there with me. I'd definitely go watch again if my husband wants to see the show.

I went with a friend. We are close in age and can appreciate the menopause symptoms being described in this musical. It was entertaining and very funny - never a dull moment. The music was great and the performances were on point! We laughed til our gut hurt!

Oh my goodness, this show was swo funny and relatable. You dont need to be a menopausal woman to enjoy. I would love to see this show come to my home town of San Francisco. Its a show for all ages.

Every song was so funny. The girls did an excellent job of conveying the difficulty’s of getting older as a woman.

I was hesitant at first on buying tickets. Therefore i did not think it would be funny. I am so glad i bought tickets!! I laughed so hard my cheeks hurt at the end of the night!! I recommend anyone who has the opportunity to go to it. It was a blast!!

Better Than Excellent
DECC Symphony Hall - Duluth
Absolutely hysterical, as in wet yourself hysterical. (Menopausal women will understand). I’ve seen the play before, but it never gets old. These 4 characters can sing, dance, mime or just stand still and they’re still hysterical. The music of the ‘60 is just icing on the cake! Must see!
Menopause The Musical on Tour
There are ch-ch-changes of life aplenty in Menopause The Musical, the hit Off-Broadway production (2002-06) that has sold more than 15 million tickets since its 2001 debut. Written by Jeanie Linders, Menopause rejiggers two dozen hit songs from the ‘50s through the '80s to talk to women — and the men who love but may not completely understand them — about food cravings, hot flashes, memory lapses, night sweats, the lure of cosmetic surgery and other common responses to the natural aging process. The longest-running scripted musical in Las Vegas history, Menopause is playing at Harrah's Cabaret and around North America on the latest legs of a tour that has included some 500 cities worldwide. Call its appeal "half-universal" and join Menopause's celebration — with laughter and sisterhood — of something every woman may eventually experience.
About Menopause The Musical
A Professional Woman, an Earth Mother, an Iowa Housewife and a Soap Star meet in Bloomingdale's lingerie department. So begins Menopause The Musical, which quickly amps up into a series of rollicking rewrites of familiar pop hits: "Chain of Fools" becomes "Change of Life," "Staying Alive" becomes "Staying Awake," "Night Fever" become "Night Sweating" and "My Guy" becomes "My Thighs." The music is nostalgic and the wordplay never less than clever. ''Nothing I can do 'cause it sticks like glue — to my thighs,'' sings the Iowa Housewife. ''No matter what I eat, there's always cellulite — on my thighs.''
While the four women come from vastly different backgrounds, they share a single inescapable characteristic: All are going through menopause. In addition to common observations on appetites ("Looking for Food in All the Wrong Places") and energy lapses ("Puff, My God I'm Draggin'"), Menopause goes there with slightly edgy observations on vibrators ("Only You") and antidepressants ("My doctor prescribed a pill to control my urge to kill").
Menopause The Musical provides a rare opportunity to see older female actors in starring roles discussing menopause publicly. It also recognizes, represents and celebrates female audience members as never before, and that's one change long overdue.
