NOW COMES THE FUN PART

THE how-the-#@*&-did-I-get-this-old MUSICAL

Think turning 50 means slowing down? Think again. Now Comes the Fun Part is a hilarious musical revue that celebrates—and lovingly pokes fun at—the unexpected realities of life after 50. From retirement and empty nesting to dating, aging bodies, AARP cards, health scares, and all the little indignities that come with getting older, this laugh-out-loud musical finds the humor in the moments that make us say, “Is this really happening to me?” Created by Jim Hindman with music and lyrics by Jeffrey Lodin and Mark Waldrop, Now Comes the Fun Part is filled with witty songs, relatable characters, and plenty of “I’ve been there!” moments. Whether you’re navigating this stage of life yourself or watching your parents, friends, or spouse experience it, you’ll recognize the people, situations, and absurdities—and probably laugh at yourself along the way. Because getting older may come with a few surprises, but as this show proves, the best part may be that now comes the fun part.
