Join AARP on November 19th at 1pm and December 3rd at 1pm for the new season on Alive! Over 55 and Kickin’. As seen on 60 Minutes, Alive! features singers and musicians over the age of 55. Some were performers back in the day, some sing in church, the shower, or in the car, but they all can sing! Alive! illustrates that talent gets better, deeper, and richer with age. You will have a great time reliving the turning points in your life, and you will feel rejuvenated when you leave the theater.
