Steel Magnolias
October 9, 2015
Dramatic Comedy at Blue Ridge Community Theater
2591 East First Street, Blue Ridge, across from the Swan Drive-In Sign
Show runs Thursday through Saturday at 7:30 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. Steel Magnolias by Robert Harling . 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, the outspoken, wise-cracking Truvy dispenses shampoos and free advice to the town’s rich curmudgeon, Ouiser,; an eccentric millionaire, Miss Clairee, and the local social leader, M’Lynn, whose daughter, Shelby, is about to marry a “good ole boy.” Filled with hilarious repartee and not a few acerbic but humorously revealing verbal collisions. The sudden realization of their mortality, when tragedy hits draws on the underlying strength—and love—which give the play, and its characters, the special quality to make them truly touching, funny and marvelously amiable company in good times and bad.
