Description
Get ready for a rollercoaster ride of emotions that’s both heart-warming and hilarious – while also tinged with bittersweet tragedy.
Steel Magnolias is the latest offering from Laughing Horse Productions at the Don Russell Performing Arts Centre. Written by Robert Harling and directed by Adam Salathiel, the play is set in a Louisiana beauty salon where six remarkable women learn to draw upon their underlying strength and love to meet the challenges of life. Harling was inspired to write his first play after his sister Susan died of complications from diabetes and it was later adapted into the 1989 film starring Sally Field, Dolly Parton, Shirley MacLaine, Daryl Hannah, Olympia Dukakis and Julia Roberts. The play’s title suggests the main female characters can be both as delicate as the magnolia flower and as tough as steel. Steel Magnolias plays at 7.30pm March 12, 13, 19 and 20 with 2pm matinees March 13 and 20. Tickets are $26, $18 concession – book at https://tinyurl.com/steel2021 or on 9498 9414. The Don Russell Performing Arts Centre is at Lot 13 Murdoch Road, Thornlie.
