ABOUT MIDLIFE MONOLOGUESTM

Part play, part pep-rally, Midlife MonologuesTM is a groundbreaking, multi-genre arts showcase with a powerful message and growing cult following. Inspired by the mantra, “you tell me your story, and somehow, I get mine,” last year the show brought audiences to their feet with two sold out performances at PURE Theatre and critical acclaim from the press.

HOT IN CHARLESTON
“Hot in Charleston is a midlife community harnessing the power of story sharing to help women feel connected and supported.”
— KERRI DEVINE
Thank you to our sponsors, benefactors and patrons for helping us tell women’s stories and supporting them in their life journeys.
