Fourteen extraordinary women from all across Canada, with no previous acting experience, share stories about life after 45 in this thought-provoking play by award-winning Canadian playwright Judith Thompson. The cast, who auditioned by writing a letter to their bodies, share their personal stories of triumphs, tragedies and life’s funny moments, while challenging the audience to look beneath the surface of how society views beauty, aging and women in their second act in life.
