Geriatric Monologues, a Readers Theater Play in One and Two Act formats. Some Smiles and Frowns From the Road Most Travel The final porch of life where self-made philosophers act as messengers and rock to the rhythm and the beats that formed their lives and lead them to a place of sharing and remembering, composing acapella poetic operettas of what's to come for most. This is a story about discovery and acceptance. GERIATRIC MONOLOGUES is a collection of thoughts, emotions, opinions, revelations and confessions of women and men thought to be old or on their way to being old. The notes to themselves about growing old are shared by our messengers with others on the same journey in hopes that the starts and stops on the trip will be less bumpy and hold out more hope for the final destination.
