In the Little Theater

Director / Adam Garner-Northrop

Truvy’s Salon is the beauty hub of Chinquapin, Louisiana, offering hairdos, manicures – and gossip. With her over-eager assistant Annelle, Truvy caters to small-town regulars including the caring M'Lynn and her soon-to-be-married daughter Shelby, the moody Ouiser, and the affluent widow Clairee. Through witty banter and wisecracks, this hodgepodge group of women form friendships as strong as steel. Known for its cherished film adaptation starring Sally Field, Shirley MacLaine, Olympia Dukakis, Dolly Parton, Daryl Hannah, and Julia Roberts, STEEL MAGNOLIAS is a hilariously touching comedy-drama celebrating the bonds among a group of Southern women in a home beauty salon in northwest Louisiana.

By Robert Harling

STEEL MAGNOLIAS is presented through special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service.
