The Colonnade Players is proud to present this popu-lar production, by special arrangement with Drama-tists Play Service, Inc. “Steel Magnolias”, written by Rob-ert Harling.
The story follows an enter-taining narrative about women’s routine stops to Truvy’s Hair Salon in Chin-quapin, Louisiana. This is where we meet our main characters, and if you are considered “someone” in the town, this is your salon! Eve-rybody keeps up with the whispers, so the salon is always filled with gossip and hilarious repartee.
In the beginning of act one, we meet a new face to the salon, Annelle (Renee Lierow), with beauty shop owner, Truvy (Rebecca
Lapp), and all of the persistent costumers who spill the tea on the town. There is Clairee (Alice Carbaugh), who is an eccentric millionaire and for-mer Mayor’s wife, as well as the wise-cracking, know it all, Ouiser Boudreaux (Kitty Reel), and the “social leader”, M’Lynn (Kim Jenkins), along with her engaged daughter, Shelby (Megan Cobb).
This play is full of all kinds of free advice, verbal antics, and humor all around. However, in the second act, we stumble on Shelby’s secret which is seen as revealing and alarming. The
Louisiana women become a figurative support group for each other. We see all of the character's true personalities come out in raw form. It is a guarantee you will both laugh and cry and laugh until you cry.
