The Palms Theatre Brings the Heat for Inaugural Musical Production Menopause the Musical® Kicks off the 2013-2014 Season

The Prather Entertainment Group is proud to announce the opening of The Palms Theatre in Mesa.

Mesa, AZ, October 02, 2013 – The Prather Entertainment Group is proud to announce the opening of The Palms Theatre in Mesa. Formerly known as Broadway Palm Dinner Theatre, the grand opening will take place October 24, 2013 to kick off the 2013-2014 season with the runaway hit musical comedy, Menopause the Musical® , running October 24th through November 23rd, with both evening and matinee performances.

In a marketing association with Black Dog Promotions, Menopause the Musical® promises to be an audience favorite, as popular as it was when it ran at Prather Entertainment Group’s other theatres, where the musical routinely had sold-out performances. The show is a non-stop feast of singing, dancing, witty dialogue and parodies from the ‘60’s, 70’s and 80’s that will resonate with a wide audience.

Menopause the Musical® is set in a department store, where four women with nothing in common but a black lace bra accidentally meet at a lingerie sale. The all-female cast pokes musical hilarity fun of their woeful hot flashes, forgetfulness, mood swings, wrinkles, night sweats and chocolate binges. A sisterhood is formed between these diverse women when they realize that menopause is no longer “The Silent Passage” and is made easier with a bit of humor.

Menopause The Musical® is the work of writer and producer, Jeanie Linders. The laughter-filled 90-minute production includes parodies from the classics of the ‘60s and ‘70s and ‘80s. Disco hit “Stayin’ Alive” becomes “Stayin’ Awake,” Motown favorite “My Girl” is transformed into “My Thighs,” “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” switches to “In the Guest Room or on the Sofa, My Husband Sleeps at Night,” and “Puff The Magic Dragon” becomes the anthem to exercise, “Puff, My God I’m Draggin.’” It’s ‘The Hilarious Celebration of Women and the Change!’®

The Prather Entertainment Group is a family owned and operated company that follows one basic philosophy, “Give the guests great entertainment at a great value.” The company also owns The Dutch Apple Dinner Theatre in Lancaster, Pennsylvania and the Broadway Palm Dinner Theatre in Fort Myers, Florida.
