Steel Magnolias by Robert Harling April 19-21
Steel Magnolias is a dramatic comedy centered around six southern women and their relationships that bloom within the local beauty salon. Set over 2 years in the late 1980s, the play follows Truvy, the sassy and strong salon owner; Annelle, her anxious new assistant with her fair share of secrets; Miss Clairee, widow of the former beloved mayor who has become quite the public figure herself; Ouiser, the town curmudgeon with a warm heart; Shelby, a young woman with health issues who’s ready to take risks to live her life; and M’Lynn, who will protect her daughter at any cost.
Due to construction at the High School, all performances will be held at the Middle School Performing Arts Center, located at 2025 Texas Ave S. Performances are April 19 and 20 at 7 p.m. and April 21 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $7 for adults, $5 for students and senior citizens, and free with student ID for all SLPHS students.
