QUEEN EMILY JOINS ‘MENOPAUSE THE MUSICAL’
HIT PRODUCTION AT LAS VEGAS HILTON

LAS VEGAS—Queen Emily, one of the top five finalists in “America’s Got Talent,” will join the cast of Menopause The Musical® at the Las Vegas Hilton on Friday, February 13.

Queen Emily got her start singing as a little girl in church. Although her talent was apparent to everyone who heard her sing, life got in the way of her dreams. Raising her daughters as a single mother meant Emily's musical aspirations had to be put on hold.

When she turned 40, Emily experienced an epiphany and realized that it was time to stop dreaming and start acting, which led her to the "America's Got Talent" auditions. She became a top five finalist in the popular show (out of the more than 200,000 people who auditioned), dazzling the nation with her story and her voice.

Menopause The Musical®, which debuted at the Las Vegas Hilton on February 1, 2006, continues playing to sold out audiences nightly and is approaching 1500 performances in Las Vegas.

Inspired by a hot flash and a bottle of wine, Writer/Producer Jeanie Linders created the show as a celebration of women who are on the brink of, in the middle of, or have survived “The Change.” From its first performance, the show has evolved as a "grassroots" movement of women who deal with life after 40 and all the challenges that result in the mental, physical and spiritual freedom of the post-World War II baby boomer generation. Since it’s inception in 2001, it has played to nearly eleven million people across the world.

Showtimes for Menopause The Musical® in the Las Vegas Hilton’s Shimmer Cabaret are Mon., Tues., Thur., Fri., 7 p.m., Saturday 4 p.m. & 7 p.m., and Sunday 6 p.m. Dark Wednesdays.
