Please join us for this heartwarming and humorous play by Robert Harling that explores the intricate lives of six Southern women bound by friendship, love, and tragedy.

Set in a small-town beauty salon in Louisiana, the play unfolds with wit, warmth, and poignant moments that showcase both the strength and vulnerability of these women.
 

At the heart of the story is Truvy Jones, the charismatic, fast-talking salon owner, who welcomes a variety of clients, each with their own unique personalities and struggles. There's M'Lynn, the loving but often stoic mother, who strives to maintain control in the face of her daughter Shelby’s fragile health, and Shelby herself, a young woman whose battle with diabetes complicates her dreams of a happy, independent life.

The other women, including the gossipy and acerbic Clairee, the eccentric and tough-talking Ouiser, and the sweet but self-conscious Annelle, all add their distinctive flavors to the mix.

While the salon serves as a backdrop for gossip, beauty treatments, and the occasional laugh, the play delves deeper into themes of love, loss, and the unbreakable bonds of female friendship. From hilarious one-liners to heart-rending moments, Steel Magnolias is an emotional rollercoaster that highlights the strength of women who, despite their differences, support and uplift each other through life’s triumphs and tragedies.

In the end, the women prove that, just like steel magnolias, they are delicate yet unyielding. Steel Magnolias is a celebration of resilience, courage, and the power of community—where laughter and tears intertwine, leaving an indelible mark on the heart.
