Five Blue Haired Ladies Sitting on a Green Park Bench

By John A. Penzotti
Directed by Ruth Strutt

Featuring as the ladies: Lee Thompson, Sandra Sando, Rosemary Mowbray, Rosalind Higginson and Eileen Coleman

Anna, Eva, Rose, Gladys and La La had only two things in common when they met seven months ago - a park bench and a life well lived. Through fond and sometimes painful memories, keen observations and great laughs, these ladies are truly on the cusp of eighty something going on eighteen.

Bound by each other’s strengths, wisdom and witticisms, each one unknowingly prepares to leave the bench, perhaps for the last time.  As the journey unfolds it’s those bonds that ensure, at least for these fearless five, that the grim reaper is not so grim after all.  A hilarious and moving story of five wonderful women guaranteed to make you laugh… And cry. So come to the park, sit, listen and enjoy their lust for life, love and laughter.
