Boomer Girl

Playhouse on Park, Hartford

About the Show

Age: It’s only a number! Boomer Girl takes a fresh, funny, and sometimes poignant look at one woman working out the math when the digits involved are “5” and “0”. Conceived, written and performed by Jan Neuberger with music by Ben Cohn, the show has delighted audiences at New York City cabarets Don’t Tell Mama and Mama Rose and at Connecticut’s Ivoryton Playhouse. Jan, the Boomer Girl in question, is a veteran of decades of work on stage. She recently appeared on Broadway in Wicked and How the Grinch Stole Christmas (Grandma Who!). Now an undergraduate Creative Writing major at Trinity College, you never know where life’s going to take you. Jan is on track to graduate with the class of 13! Yes, 50 is only a number, but it’s one with unique resonance for a whole generation, and we’re just getting started!
