Second Wind Tour Coming to Kansas City



2nd Wind Tour

Are you ready to reimagine your life?  Need help with that?  Have we got an opportunity for you!

You are invited to Dr. Bill Thomas' Second Wind Tour on Thursday, May 22, from 1 to 5 p.m. at the Folley Theater in downtown Kansas City, Missouri.

Dr. Bill Thomas, one of the most innovative and creative thinkers working in medicine today, is bringing a radical new approach to growth and aging through a national “non-fiction” theatrical tour produced in partnership with AARP’s Life Reimagined, Capital Impact Partners, and more than three dozen sponsor organizations.  The tour will be in Kansas City, Missouri at the Folley Theater on Thursday, May 22, from 1 to 5 p.m.

Inspired by Thomas’ new book examining the baby boom generation’s reluctant generational second coming of age—“Second Wind: Navigating the Passage to a Slower, Deeper and More Connected Life” — the Second Wind Tour is bringing a unique “non-fiction” theater experience blending the spoken word, innovative set design, film, and music to cities around the country.

Each half-day performance will feature two acts. Act one will consist of five fast-paced theatrical monologues featuring a cast of speakers including Dr. Thomas and renowned consumer health expert and TV personality Dr. Janet Taylor. Act two will feature a documentary film debut followed by a live musical performance by Musicians for World Harmony Founder Samite Mulondo.

Audiences will be taken on a holistic exploration that draws on a deep well of evidenced-based approaches to growth, change, aging, health and wellness.  The goal of the tour   is to start a new conversation that reframes "life after adulthood" as an exciting stage of human growth and development -- a time for challenging attitudes toward aging.

The event is free but you must register to attend.   You can register by visiting http://www.eventbrite.com/e/second-wind-tour-kansas-city-mo-tickets-10696853577?aff=aarp
