In the small-town world of Truvy’s beauty salon, six unforgettable women gather to share laughter, secrets, heartache, and the everyday moments that bind them together. Robert Harling’s beloved Steel Magnolias is a tender and often hilarious celebration of friendship, family, and the strength found in community.
As the women navigate love, marriage, motherhood, loss, and life’s unexpected challenges, their bonds deepen and their resilience shines through. With its sharp wit and heartfelt storytelling, Steel Magnolias reminds us that even the strongest people need one another—and that laughter can sometimes carry us through the hardest moments.
Funny, poignant, and deeply human, Steel Magnolias is a timeless story of women who prove that strength and tenderness can exist side by side.
Add to the experience by purchasing access to a pre-show “Blush and Bashful” event. Enjoy a cocktail (or mocktail), cake, a photo booth with souvenir photo, and seat selection reservation (all other seating is general admission).
Steel Magnolias is presented by arrangement with Concord theatricals on behalf of Dramatists Play Services.
Audience Advisory: Steel Magnolias contains mature themes, including discussions of illness, pregnancy, death, grief, and loss. Some scenes may be emotionally intense. Audience discretion is advised.
