'Five Blue Haired Ladies Sitting on a Green Park Bench' - by John A Penzotti.
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 a good belly laugh now and again, these gals are truly on the cusp of eighty, going on eighteen. Bound by each other’s strengths, wisdom and witticisms, each one unwittingly prepares for the day they 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.
"It's Sex and the City on Sanatogen. John A. Penzotti's script is littered with smart one-liners. Hilarious, yet poignant." - Herald Express
"John Penzotti's bittersweet comedy... a sort of Golden Girls meets Heaven's Gate." - Whatsonstage

Don't waste a day, an hour, a minute.
Love life every second of the day.
