Beachside condos and bingo games may be how some people handle old age, but not Naomi Turner and Wilderness Sarchild. A dancer and a poet, they used their combined experiences to create “Wrinkles: The Musical, a celebration of women and aging.

Wrinkles premiered last may at The Cape Cod Theatre Company in West Harwich, and will return this May. For more information, visit their website.

This piece came from our production partners at Atlantic Public Media through their media training program, The Transom Story Workshop in Woods Hole. Ilana Weinstein is a graduate of the workshop and you can find out more about that program at Transom.org.
