A new play about reaching middle age and not giving a f**k.

Produced by Chrysalis Theatre Company. 

SHE TAKES FLIGHT is a newly devised theatrical production that delves into the personal experiences of five women, aged from their late 40s to late 60s, navigating the complexities of mid-life in New York City in 2025. The play explores themes of womanhood, aging, empowerment, and identity through a series of poignant monologues and ensemble scenes. It candidly addresses challenges such as coping with aging and body image, caring for aging parents, and evolving relationships with motherhood. Balancing humor and heartbreak, SHE TAKES FLIGHT offers narratives that reflect the diverse experiences of women at different life stages. Its multi-generational appeal resonates with both emerging young women and those from preceding generations, fostering a collective reflection on the evolving journey of womanhood.

The play is ultimately a celebration of survival, connection, truth-telling, and sisterhood. It’s about taking flight—not despite our burdens, but because of them.
