Monsters! A Midlife Musical Meltdown

A wacky, fast-paced musical comedy, “Monsters! A Midlife Musical” delves into the life of a woman who unshackles her inner monsters on her 40th birthday, with help from her mother, of course! The hysterical original work, written by Deertrees Artistic Director Gail Phaneuf and Broadway lyricist Ernie Lijoi, makes its decade reprise at Deertrees, starring Katie Connor (from Deertrees 2021, 2022 productions as Patsy in   Always… as Patsy Cline) as 40-year-old protagonist Samantha. Experience uproarious laughter as Samantha attempts to put her inner monsters in their place! But, can she really?  A fabulous score begs the question “Have you faced your Monsters?”  Cast includes actors Gail Phaneuf, Patti Hathaway, Bill Spera, Teresa Dyer, and Rylee Doiron.  This non-stop musical comedy will make you laugh, and bring you to your feet at Deertress this summer!  

 “Facing one’s demons isn’t supposed to be FUN, but Gail Phaneuf and Ernie Lijoi have found a way to do it.”  -The Boston Globe
