The pains, perils, and poignancies of aging are served up in hilarious and heartfelt style in this clever, crowd-pleasing musical revue. Topics mined include high school reunions, finances, plastic surgery, aches and pains, lost loves, and of course, new wrinkles. Who knew angst could be so entertaining?
Marin County’s equivalent-of-a-national-treasure Rita Abrams has teamed up with collaborators Morris Bobrow and Gerald Nachman to create a riotous smorgasbord of material that, although clearly aimed at a mature audience, should provoke plenty of laughs in a younger one too.
NEW WRINKLES – the musical hit by 3 Award-winning writers, Rita Abrams, Gerald Nachman, and Morris Bobrow! Directed by Morris Bobrow and Choreographed by Sherry Hines, this evening’s performance will star Erika Alstrom, Nan Ayers, Mark Clark, Paula Gianetti and Kit Grimm… with Rita Abrams as music director!

“Sassy, Tuneful and Ingratiating! A hilarious kick in the libido for anyone who is, or will be, or remembers the terrors of encountering the half-century mark. The delights and terrors of the revue’s themes will induce shock waves of recognition. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! GO SEE IT!”-San Francisco Bay Times
