Whisper, The Women

Seven senior women share individual stories and reflections of their lives, creating a non-traditional profile of growing older. These women look back on their lives and reminisce about their achievements, places they have visited, and what they would have done differently. One woman remembers the career she had as a concert pianist, another recommends waiting to marry at a later age, and yet another woman talks about receiving her pilot's license. These ladies also speak about what they would like to see happen within their lifetimes. One woman wanted to see the Civil Rights Bill passed, while another hoped to experience parachuting. Finally, this production ends with the upbeat declaration from one who states that she is not going to worry about what the future holds for her. She is simply going to enjoy what she has now.
