Don't miss a single play! |
|
STEEL
MAGNOLIAS |
A group of Southern women
meet regularly in Truvy’s beauty salon in Chinquapin, Louisiana,
to have their hair done and share their lives — secrets, fears,
hopes and dreams. A play crafted with sharp, funny dialogue, beautifully
drawn characters, sometimes hilarious situations and an uplifting and
life-affirming conclusion. One of the best-loved plays in American theater. |

HERE COMES CHRISTMAS |

“Lil Bit” learns the rules of the road and a whole lot more from her Uncle Peck in this Pulitzer Prize-winning play. [Peck: “Put your hands on the wheel. I never want to see you driving with one hand.” Lil Bit: “If I put my hands on the wheel how do I defend myself?”] A dark and wildly funny survival tale. A brilliant light shines on a shadowy subject. |

A bright, delicious new musical! This comic fable about women in a Florida trailer park and their no-good men is “the theatrical equivalent of a bag of chips — you can’t get enough!” Raucous fun! |
