Steel Magnolias

Steel Magnolias

Whittier Center Theatre
7630 S. Washington Ave. Whittier

The bittersweet Southern comedy Steel Magnolias takes place in Truvy Jones' beauty salon, where three generations of outspoken Southern women regularly gather to laugh, cry and celebrate the events of their lives. But their world is rocked when M'Lynn's diabetic daughter gets pregnant, which could prove fatal -- and the ladies' inner strength and love for one another is put to the ultimate test. Based on the playwright's own upbringing, the touching and funny play was adapted into a popular film starring Sally Field, Dolly Parton, Shirley MacLaine and Julia Roberts. Now this production of Steel Magnolias brings all the camaraderie, humor and poignancy of this lasting show to the Whittier Center Theatre.
