Click here for a review of the show by Neil Zolot of the Saugus Advertiser on Wicked Local Saugus.
We are proud to present Steel Magnolias as our closing Mainstage production during our 50th Anniversary Season.
A first play which met with immediate critical and popular acceptance in its premier production by New York’s WPA Theatre. Concerned with a group of gossipy southern ladies in a small-town beauty parlor, the play is alternately hilarious and touching — and, in the end, deeply revealing of the strength and purposefulness which underlies the antic banter of its characters.
“Harling has given his women sharp, funny dialogue… The play builds to a conclusion that is deeply moving.” – NY Daily News
Scheduled performance dates:
April 26-28 and May 3-5, 2019
