Description

5 Point Theater Company presents Robert Harling’s humorous, poignant and timeless play.

Revolving around Truvy's Beauty Parlor in a small parish in modern-day Louisiana, "Steel Magnolias" is the story of a close-knit circle of friends whose lives come together there.

The action is set in Truvy's beauty salon in Chinquapin, Louisiana, where all the ladies who are "anybody" come to have their hair done. Helped by her eager new assistant, Annelle (Alyse Rust) who is not sure whether or not she is still married; the outspoken, wise-cracking Truvy (Elyse Tera) dispenses shampoos and free advice to the town's rich curmudgeon; Ouiser (Mary Ellen Finch), an eccentric millionaire; Miss Clairee (Sarah Howard), who has a raging sweet tooth; and the local social leader, M'Lynn (Shara Johnston), whose daughter, Shelby (Lillian Morrill) the prettiest girl in town, is about to marry a "good ole boy."
