"Broads" the musical opens Feb. 13 at El Portal Forum Theatre

BROADS! The Musical - A sparkling new musical comedy starring Tony nominee June Gable, "Police Academy" films' Leslie Easterbrook, and Broadway veterans Ivonne Coll and Barbara Niles.

Elaine and Myra are sisters residing at Millennium Manor Retirement Village in South Florida, where they team up with fellow seniors Louise and Nilda to put on an annual variety show in the clubhouse. When Louise delivers some unexpected news right in the middle of their act, the performance begins to unravel and the ladies have to scramble to pull themselves together - with hilarious, poignant, and tuneful results. Meet the 'broads' of Millennium Manor!
