Steel Magnolias

It's somewhat of a "Louisiana rite of passage" to experience Steel Magnolias live on stage. If you've already had the pleasure, contunire the tradition - grab your loved ones and closest friends to share this beloved "comedy that will make you cry!" Six women come together in this hilarious and heartwarming story of life, love and loss in a small North Louisiana parish. At the center of the group is Shelby, newly married and joyfully pregnant, despite the fact that her diabetes could make childbirth life-threatening. Terrified and andry at the possibility of losing her only daughter, M'Lynn looks to her four closest friends for strength and laughter as she battles her deepest fear of death in order to join Shelby in celebrating the miracle of new life. Not just for the ladies, this wonderfully crafted play is a beautiful tribute to friendship, community and the power of the human spirit that will touch the hearts of all theatergoers. Spend an evening celebrating the Louisiana woman.. "delicate as a magnolias, but tough as steel."
