It started with a simple reunion—two longtime friends reconnecting after years apart. But what followed was a hilarious, deeply moving performance that left everyone laughing, reminiscing, and maybe wiping away a tear or two.
In the opening moments, we see Letisha and Fanny—two older women with sharp wit and sharper memories—trying to find each other in a crowd. “You don’t have to shout,” one says. “What?” the other replies. From the start, it’s clear: age hasn’t dulled their comedic timing one bit.
But this wasn’t just a sketch. As they sit and swap memories—from school games to old flames—the scene slowly transforms into something more: a musical reflection on aging, identity, and resilience.
Suddenly, the conversation turns into a bittersweet song:
“When my teeth are at rest / in a glass by my bed… and my hair lies somewhere / in a drawer…”
With gentle humor and raw honesty, they sing about the realities of growing older—the missing hair, the false teeth, the slower pace—but also about the power of hope, memory, and starting over.
As the music builds, they sing:
“I put in my teeth / and I put on my hair… and I’m ready to begin again.”
By the final note, the audience is on its feet. The message is clear: it’s never too late to laugh, love, and live fully. Whether you’re 19 or 90, a new beginning can start with a song, a smile, or simply showing up.
