THE OLDEST PROFESSION

Pinewood Theatre

17th - 20th March 2021 at 7.45pm

Starting one week before the presidential elections that brought Ronald Reagan to the White House, the play concerns five post-menopausal prostitutes plying their trade in New York City to a dwindling clientele of geriatric johns. Times have changed in the fifty years since they moved from New Orleans to Manhattan, and so have their fortunes. Dealing with increased competition, rising rents, failing mental faculties and deteriorating stamina - theirs' and their customers' - the ladies are like a family who support each other through ups and downs, their warmth and wit getting them through even the toughest test.
