WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Marrying George Clooney: Confessions from a Midlife Crisis, is a sharp-witted new play about three menopausal women wide-awake at 3 a.m. trading prescription drugs online, revealing their passions, and googling old boyfriends, while stressing over the mother of all

Not What We Expected...
My friend Karen and I went to see MGC last night and were quite disappointed. The whimsy suggested by the description of a play about three menopausal women wide-awake at 3 AM trading prescription drugs online, revealing their passions, and Googling old boyfriends made us expect laughs and a good time.

The script -- by Amy Ferris, Ken Ferris and Krista Lyons -- splinters its central narrative between three women (played by Eliza Ventura, Meghan Duffy, and Colleen Zenk). The actresses sometimes portray different aspects of one central character, a woman who's mid-menopause and coping with her elderly mother's progressive dementia, while sometimes, they become other individualized characters, whose experiences, histories and wo[...]
