STEEL MAGNOLIAS

Season: 63 (2008 - 2009)

Run Date(s): Mar. 13, 2009 - Mar. 22, 2009

Description: By Robert Harling The action is set in Truvy's beauty salon in Chinquapin, Louisana, where all the ladies who are "anybody" come to have their hair done. Helped by her eager new assistant, Annelle, the outspoken, wise-cracking Truvy dispenses shampoos and free advice to the town's rich curmudgeon, Ouiser, an eccentric millionaire, Miss Clairee, who has a raging sweet tooth; and the local social leader, M'Lynn, whose daughter, Shelby is about to marry a "good ole boy." The play is alternately hilarious and touching -- and, in the end, deeply revealing of the strength and purposefulness which underlies the antic banter of its characters. (Appropriate for ages 13 and up.) Audition Dates: February 2-3, 2009 Tickets on Sale Subscriber - February 23 Public - March 2 Joy Theatre
