Our Next Main Stage Show!
Steel Magnolias
by Robert Harling
A Comedy/Drama directed by Andrea Pierkowski.
Show Dates: July 16-19 and 23-26, 2009
General Admission: $13
Through Grade 12: $5
A first play which met with immediate critical and popular acceptance in its premier production by New York's WPA Theatre. Concerned with a group of gossipy southern ladies in a small-town beauty parlor, the play is alternately hilarious and touching-and, in the end, deeply revealing of the strength and purposefulness which underlies the antic banter of its characters.
