Carol's Second Act Show Summary

At age 50, Carol Kenney has raised her children, gotten divorced and retired from teaching. Instead of kicking up her heels and taking a well-earned break, she decides it's time to start over, committing to the pursuit of her dream of becoming a doctor. As the oldest medical intern - by a lot - she must sink or swim with peers who are half her age. Luckily for her, her enthusiasm, perspective and even her age may be exactly what makes her second act a great success.
