STEEL MAGNOLIAS by Robert Harling directed by Anthony Methvin STARRING: Dagmar Krause Fields, Annie Hinton, Claire Kaplan, Wendy Maples, Liliana Talwatte & Marci Anne Wuebben Truvy’s salon in Chinquapin, Louisiana is the go-to place for a beauty fix with a heaping helping of gossip. Alongside her eager assistant Annelle, she pampers her clients with hairdos, manicures, and advice. Anybody who is anybody in town is a regular, including the doting M’Lynn and her headstrong daughter Shelby, the moody Ouiser, and the well-to-do widow Clairee. Through witty banter and wisecracks, these women forge friendships as strong as steel which they are forced to lean on when hard times are on the horizon. This 35th anniversary production honors the singular strength of the Southern woman as it celebrates the essential bonds of the families that we’re born into and those that we choose. Gather the folks you love, grab a box of tissues, and get ready to feel the joyfulness of connection as you revisit this American classic now when we need it the most.
