BREAKDOWN

MENOPAUSE THE MUSICAL 2

The characters are all women of any ethnicity, presenting over 40 years old, of all shapes and sizes.

The ability to harmonize, belt/sell a musical number, be comfortable with musical theatre stage dance

and have good comedic timing is a plus.

The characters to be cast, adhere to the gender binary, using she/her pronouns. Our casting goal is to

be as inclusive as possible. Gender non-conforming, genderqueer, transgender, and non-binary actors

are encouraged to audition for roles that resonate with their identities.

TIME: The Present

PLACE: CRUISE SHIP

SYNOPSIS: The characters are four individuals who met at Bloomingdales a few years prior in Menopause The Musical® and bonded over menopause symptoms. Five years later they have decided to take a girl’s trip together to reconnect in Menopause The Musical 2 Cruising Through The Change ®.

SEEKING:

PROFESSIONAL WOMAN: [big belt chest voice to F#] Type-A BOSS who does not suffer fools. She is in the position of power in her career, which she forged as a single mother, and now grandmother; a control freak who’s losing control due to “The Change” and has little patience with the havoc it is reeking on her life. Happy to be out of the office and away with her favorite girlfriends.

SOAP STAR: [soprano with a belt, lyric soprano to E, belt to B] Attractive, well preserved, and spicy. She is passed the ingénue character that she has played in a popular soap opera and is still struggling to come to grips with aging unsuccessfully because how it affects her livelihood as well as her life. As with all things though, she will find a way to win. {basic knowledge of tap dance a plus}.

EARTH MOTHER: [warm pleasant voice, with ability to belt to E] Vegan, wears Birkenstocks and socks; an herbalist who sells crystals and follows astrology, but is struggling with the lesser efforts of her life-partner of 29 years.

IOWA HOUSEWIFE: [low chest voice, innocent tone, should be able to belt to E] Not quite in shape, her clothes make her look frumpier than she really is (i.e. no sense of style). She has naïve wisdom, grieving the loss of her husband of 30 years. Trying to make a fresh start while still holding onto the past.
