Steel Magnolias Reviews
Stage Scene LA- Highly Recommended
"...Six terrific actresses strut their comedic stuff as a sextet of Louisiana women whose delicate exteriors hide tough-as-steel cores in the Group Rep’s season-opening crowd-pleaser, Robert Harling’s Southern-fried charmer Steel Magnolias."
Stage Raw- Recommended
"...Having risen to popularity thanks to the star-studded 1989 film, Steel Magnolias centers around a group of Southern women who gather in their favorite haunt — Truvy’s beauty parlor — to swap recipes and secrets, and to carry each other through their successes and tragedies. The play is funny, female-forward, surprisingly progressive, and with more than enough scenes that pass the Bechdel test."
Larchmont Buzz- Recommended
"...The tenderness of Steel Magnolias is inherent to the script, and the Group Rep's faithful rendition often conjures a fair degree of warmth."
