There are sev eral rich roles for women in this play\, and it&rsquo\;s a wonderfully l ighthearted look at how women view themselves and the pressures they put on themselves to maintain physical beauty. I was intrigued that it was written by two well-known\, distinguished authors\, and upon reading it\ , found it delightfully funny as well as poignant. I think audiences wil l really enjoy it.&rdquo\;\nFor tickets and information: \;twomusest heatre.org \;or (248) 850-9919.
