Steel Magnolias October 18, 2009

STEEL MAGNOLIAS – By Robert Harling

Six soft-hearted "magnolias" with steely dispositions gather regularly at Truvy’s House of Beauty, the unofficial hub of Chinquapin, Louisiana, to chat with, counsel, criticize and comfort one another. The wise-cracking Truvy, with the help of her new glamour technician, Annelle, dispenses liberal doses of shampoo, hairspray, free advice and gossip to the town’s rich curmudgeon, Ouiser, Miss Clairee, and the local social worker, M’Lynn, whose daughter, Shelby, is on the verge of marriage. The play visits these women over the course of two years in which together they experience love, joy, pain, and death. True to their southern roots, these women survive the toughest of times with their hearts and sense of humor intact. One thing is for sure. STEEL MAGNOLIAS will steal your heart!
