From
bedpans and false teeth to gardening and cardio moves,
HEALTHY WEALTHY AND WISE followed the extraordinary
adventures of the Grey
Panthers. Through song and dance and a good dose
of laughter, these matriarchs took us on a journey that
evoked the humour, courage and beauty of women living
in their later years.
The women shared their wisdom and experience
and their willingness to go on learning as they help
keep the trees of life blossoming. Old age in not just
about wearing purple, knitting, and false teeth. These
radical grandmothers challenge us to live our lives
to the fullest. Powerful, entertaining, witty and poignant.
